I do get the results that you show above.
I have had to set bbdb-extract-address-components-handler to nil for
normal VM behavior to come back. Unless I did this, I was getting
behavior that I described in my previous e-mail (i.e. instead of
showing the message, VM used to show the whole folder - which probably
means something is going wrong in a VM message display hook and it is
simply eating up the error display).
When I set it to nil and try to display the message that I had
attached in my previous e-mail, I see this in my *Messages*
buffer. When I try a ';' or a ':' to show some information about the
sender, nothing happens. When I go to the message headers and say
bbdb-show-all-recipients, I get a " is not in the db, add (...)". So,
it is somehow finding that " " that is in the subject and trying to
find an address for that person. Then it properly shows the sender's
(Avtar Vasu) BBDB record.

The message or: is when I use the ';' key. The message if: unperson is
when I use the ':' key.
