The "bogon" processing in bbdb-annotate-message-sender (bbdb.el) is
really getting on my nerves.  Actually, it's really saving my butt,
but I wish it wouldn't be so rude about it.  Someone else must
encounter an occasional bogon, or the code wouldn't be here in the
first place, right?  What to other bogon sufferers think?

My problem is, I exchange a dozen or so messages every day with a
bogon: our bug tracking system sends out email from the pseudo-account
"pv", with the name of the person who actually filed the bug (or
changed its priority, etc.) provided as the "real name" (in the
parentheses).  Now in fact, I have bbdb-ignore-some-messages-alist set
to ignore this bogon, and this works quite well to keep it out of the
BBDB.  But I still have to sit through these "Ignoring bogon"/(sit-for
2) things constantly.

I'd like bbdb/mail-auto-create-p's return (which comes into
bbdb-annotate-message-sender as the parameter create-p) to silence the
bogonicity warnings.  Does that seem reasonable?  It's rather a muddle
of what the various flags and codes think they're accomplishing.
Maybe I just want a "silence-bogons" flag?
