The customization buffer of XEmacs lists four choices for the value of the variable bbdb/mail-auto-create-p:
"Automatically create" t "Prompt before creating" prompt "Do not automatically create" nil "Create with function" bbdb- but BBDB seems only to recognize t and nil. In particular, prompt behaves like t: it always creates a record without prompting. Am I doing or not doing something that I should be to get prompted before a new address is added? Appended is my BBDB initialization. Thanks. --- Vladimir ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Vladimir G.
