You are struggling with similar problems... I extended the allowed values for bbdb-accept-name-mismatch to include regexps and functions. This should hopefully solve most problems of that kind. See the updated doc string of bbdb-accept-name-mismatch. 2012-09-07 Roland Winkler <wink...@gnu.org> * lisp/bbdb.el (bbdb-accept-name-mismatch): Allow value being a regexp or function. * lisp/bbdb-mua.el (bbdb-annotate-message): Use these new values.
