Toggling bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p?
Hi, I have bbdb 3.02 set up to update records interactively in Gnus v5.13. For most of my 'mail-sources', GROUPS and TOPICS this is good as I like to collect email addresses. But for high-volume lists like emacs-devel, I'd rather not bother. Is there a way to turn off bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p based on a specific GNUS GROUP or GNUS Topic(s) using regex(s) like bbdb-auto-notes-rules? Here are my relevant settings: (bbdb-initialize 'gnus 'message) (bbdb-mua-auto-update-init 'gnus 'message) (set `bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p '(query . create)) (set `gnus-article-prepare-hook '(bbdb-mua-display-sender bbdb-mua-auto-update)) (set `bbdb-update-records-p '(search)) Also, when it updates, I get the menu at the bottom of this message, which says 'q' would turn off updating. But it only works for that particular message and it would be nice to turn if off for the rest of the Gnus session or for the rest of the messages in the current group. Thanks for any assistance. I know BBDB 3.02 is in development, so I'm fine with the current functionality if there is no solution to this problem yet. Thanks, Damon Your answer controls how BBDB updates/searches for records. Type ? for this help. Type y to add the current record. Type ! to add all remaining records. Type n to skip the current record. (You might also type space) Type s to switch from annotate to search mode. Type q to quit updating records. No more search or annotation is done.) -- Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow! The most comprehensive online learning library for Microsoft developers is just $99.99!

(set `bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p '(query . create)) The car (and cdr) of bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p can be replaced by functions. You want a function that returns 'search or nil if you are reading emacs-devel and 'query otherwise. Unfortunately, I am not a Gnus expert who can tell you which Gnus variable can tell you which news group you are currently reading. Can someone help? Also, when it updates, I get the menu at the bottom of this message, which says 'q' would turn off updating. But it only works for that particular message and it would be nice to turn if off for the rest of the Gnus session or for the rest of the messages in the current group. That's intended behavior. I believe it will be better if you can bind bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p according to your needs (possibly via a command you can call while reading news with gnus). Yet I'd find it odd if BBDB, while operating on one particular message, an alternative to 'q' affected not only the current message but also all subsequent messages.
