Here's one crude workaround for the misplaced *BBDB* buffer when
creating new frames for vm folders. The new vm calls
vm-select-message-hook while the previous frame is selected. This
advice prevents bbdb's pop up of the initial window until after the vm
operation has completed (and selected the created frame).
;; vm 5.8x has odd behavior with bbdb when creating frames.
(defadvice vm-visit-folder (around vm-visit-folder-suppress-bbdb first activate)
"temporarily disable bbdb-use-pop-up"
(let
((bbdb-use-pop-up nil))
ad-do-it)
(bbdb/vm-pop-up-bbdb-buffer t)
)
(defadvice vm (around vm-suppress-bbdb first activate)
"temporarily disable bbdb-use-pop-up"
(let
((bbdb-use-pop-up nil))
ad-do-it)
(bbdb/vm-pop-up-bbdb-buffer t)
)
