Re: bbdb fails with emacs 24

 Please note that BBDB recently went through a major re-write and
 I hope that a proper release of the new BBDB 3 will take place soon.
 BBDB 3 is fully compatible with GNU Emacs 23 and 24 (but not with
 older versions of GNU Emacs nor -so far- with Xemacs).

I would like to take this opportunity to say a hearty thank you for
this work!

In particular, the mail address matching makes much more sense, and
provides much better user control, in bbdb3.

 BBDB is available at
 http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/bbdb/
 To check it out, use
 git clone git://git.savannah.nongnu.org/bbdb.git

One quibble; it is not at all clear from any of the web pages that the
only way to get bbdb3 is via git; a short announcement to that effect at 
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/bbdb/ would be very helpful.

 I do not want to fix the values of user variables in a hard-coded
 way. If you do not like a particular value in a particular context,
 elisp gives you various possibilities to customize things for your
 personal taste.

Could you please explain to me how to do this?

 Please, be more considerate of such general design decisions.

Your general design decisions broke well-documented behavior that has
been around since v 1.50.
Are you sure these decisions were well thought-through?

Use ad-add-advice on bbdb-mua-edit-field; see the elisp manual for more
info.

Can you explain why you want to override your choice for
bbdb-message-all-addresses in this function?

I have not been using bbdb 3 long, but so far I very much like the
redesign.
