Both functions use the BBDB parser to recognize email address formats.

This differs from the last version of the patch only in whitespace. In
addition to changes pointed out by Tomi Ollila, I fixed a ')' on a line
alone, and aligned the lines of notmuch-bbdb/header-by-name.
I've been using this code (prior to whitespace changes) for a month and
a half, as far as testing goes.
I wonder if I can get whitespace-mode to warn me about double-spacing

Following discussion upthread, I put everything in notmuch-address. I
renamed the functions to put notmuch before bbdb. And I replaced the
horrid comma-splitting from my first version with the functions BBDB
provides for parsing email headers.
It looks as though Reply-To is not exposed in the :headers plist. I
assume the Resent-* headers are not, either. Therefore none of these
are imported (nil entries in notmuch-bbdb/header-by-name). They would be
easy to add if the plist is expanded.
Thanks, and sorry it's taken me so long to get back to this patch.

I spent the afternoon digging around in BBDB internals. They include a
function that parses the contents of a header, and handles commas
intelligently. It replaces essentially all the code in my small patch,
so I won't respond to your detailed comments, much as I appreciated
them.
I have working code using bbdb-get-addresses, but I have a few questions
before I email the revised patch.
1) Is there a canonical list of header names used by notmuch? I'm
trying to fill in this alist to match the BBDB interface. It should be
fine to leave blank any that notmuch doesn't handle.
(defvar bbdb/notmuch-header-by-name
;; both are case sensitive
'( ("From" . :From)
("To" . :To)
("CC" . :Cc)
("BCC" . :Bcc)
("Resent-From" . )
("Reply-To" . )
("Resent-To" . )
("Resent-CC" . ))
"Alist for dispatching header symbols as used by notmuch-show-get-header
from strings as used by notmuch-show-get-header")
2) What's the consensus on naming conventions? BBDB has functions for
other mail clients with names like bbdb/gnus-* and bbdb/vm-*. I
imitated this convention, but maybe it's better to leave the bbdb/*
namespace to BBDB itself, and use a prefix like notmuch-bbdb-* or
notmuch-bbdb/* (Regardless, I moved everything to notmuch-address.el, as
suggested)
Thanks,
Daniel

notmuch-emacs and bbdb
I hacked together the attached elisp yesterday. It provides bindings to put sender or recipients into bbdb. (Recipients part needs more testing.) It also colors the from line green if the sender is in bbdb, or orange otherwise. When it's been through a bit more testing, I'll submit at least the first part as a patch. I prefer not to autocapture everything into bbdb, and for the same reason, I don't want to use notmuch itself as my contacts DB. Mostly, this is because I read lots of email on lists, sent by people I'm unlikely to write back to. I don't like every John I've heard from coming up on autocomplete. Other reasons include sync to phone and adding contact information from channels other than email. bergey -- next part -- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

As far as I can tell, notmuch doesn't integrate as smoothly with bbdb as older emacs mailclients. I'm especially looking for a snarf function that distinguishes sender from recipient. How do other people use bbdb with notmuch? Does anyone have lisp code like that which ships with bbdb for other clients? If I were to find time to write such code, what would you like it to do? cheers, bergey
