I don't think Robert's question was answered. He wants to ignore *specific* addresses, not all addresses. Try
`bbdb-ignore-some-messages-alist' An alist describing which messages *not* to automatically create BBDB records for. This only works if bbdb/news-auto-create-p or bbdb/mail-auto-create-p (or both) is 'bbdb-ignore-some-messages-hook. I'm having problems with bbdb/mail-auto-create-p. It doesn't seem to work. bbdb/mail-auto-create-p is supposed to recognize 4 values: t, prompt, nil, and bbdb-<function>, but I all I seem to be able to get BBDB to recognize is nil and non-nil (i.e. prompt == t; I haven't tried bbdb-<function>). Is there some trick to getting BBDB to prompt for adding an address above and beyond setting bbdb/mail-auto-create-p to 'prompt? --- Vladimir ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Vladimir G.
