Hmm. Are there any reasons not to have that command run every time I open an e-mail? Records already in my address book wont get affected, right? [snipped 21 lines] Well, I can't seem to get what you are missing apart from the feature you asked but let me try explaining how I use BBDB; if that is of any help to you. When reading mail in the summary buffer hitting ';' prompts me to add the name if it does not already exists. C-c b asks me for a regex to search the BBDB and it shows the matches in another buffer. If that buffer is made the focus, hitting C-h m will show all the keys you can use to edit/add names, aliases and such. I seem to have the following customisations all over the place ;;in .emacs '(bbdb-get-addresses-headers (quote ((authors From Resent-From Reply-To) (recipients Resent-To Resent-CC To Cc CC BCC '(bbdb-get-only-first-address-p nil) '(bbdb-info-file c:/gnu/elisp/bbdb-2.35/texinfo/bbdb.info) BBDB in .gnus.el ;== ; BBDB ;== (require 'bbdb) (require 'bbdb-com) (require 'bbdb-gnus) (require 'bbdb-hooks) (require 'gnus-bbdb) ;; ;;need for TAB expansion in headers for addresses (require 'message-x);; search for message-x.el on the web ;; (setq message-x-body-function ;; '(lambda () (interactive)(hippie-expand nil))) (bbdb-initialize 'gnus 'message) (add-hook 'gnus-startup-hook 'bbdb-insinuate-gnus) (bbdb-insinuate-message) (setq bbdb-send-mail-style 'message) (add-hook 'message-setup-hook 'bbdb-define-all-aliases) (global-set-key (kbd C-c b) 'bbdb) (autoload 'bbdb/gnus-lines-and-from bbdb-gnus) (setq gnus-optional-headers 'bbdb/gnus-lines-and-from) (gnus-bbdb-insinuate-summary-buffer) (setq bbdb-completion-display-record nil) (setq bbdb-north-american-phone-numbers-p nil) (setq bbdb-complete-name-allow-cycling t) (setq bbdb-define-all-aliases-mode 'all) (setq bbdb-default-country nil) Have you had a chance to look at the info file? sivaram -- ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english

Records already in my address book wont get affected, right? In gnus-select-group-hook I set bbdb/news-auto-create-p to true in (some) mail-groups and false otherwise (so I do not automatically pick up people from newsgroups, rss-feeds etc). That works well for me. ,[ C-h v bbdb/news-auto-create-p RET ] | `bbdb/news-auto-create-p' is a variable declared in Lisp. | -- loaded from bbdb | | Value: nil | | Documentation: | *If this is t, then Gnus will automatically create new bbdb | records for people you receive mail from.

You can use this to, for | example, create or not create messages which have a particular | subject. If you want to autocreate messages based on the current | newsgroup, it's probably a better idea to set this variable to t or | nil from your `gnus-select-group-hook' instead. ` I set it like this: ; Only let bbdb auto-create in some groups: (setq gnus-select-group-hook '(lambda () (setq bbdb/news-auto-create-p (and (string-match ^nnml: gnus-newsgroup-name) (not (or (string-match ^nnml:spam gnus-newsgroup-name) (string-match ^nnml:virus gnus-newsgroup-name) ) ))) ) (I can not remember where I stole^Wgot it from originally). I have read some messages from jwz about bbdb and I get the impression it can do a lot more than I think. If only I knew how... Did you read the manual?
