Cool. Here is what I am doing now, in case anyone is interested:
(setq bbdb-auto-notes-alist
'(("To"
("ange-ftp-lovers" . "ange-ftp")
("-bbdb" . "BBDB")
("www-announce@" . "Swiss WWW announce")
("Cc"
("ange-ftp-lovers" . "ange-ftp")
("-bbdb" . "BBDB")
("www-announce@" . "Swiss WWW announce")
("Subject" (".*" last-subj 0 t))
;; ("Newsgroups" ("[^,]+" newsgroups 0 t))
("Newsgroups" (".*" newsgroups 0 t))
("X-URL" (".*" url 0 t))
("X-www" (".*" url 0 t))
("X-Organisation" (".*" company 0 t))
("X-Organization" (".*" company 0 t))
("Organization" (".*" company 0 t))))
(add-hook 'bbdb-change-hook 'bbdb-timestamp-hook) ; last modified date field
(add-hook 'bbdb-create-hook 'bbdb-creation-date-hook) ; creation date field
(add-hook 'bbdb-notice-hook 'bbdb-auto-notes-hook) ; see -auto-notes-alist
My only wish is for support for regexp's in the mail header field, then I
wouldn't have to have three separate entries for "company", and I could
combine my Cc: and To: entries. But whatever. :)
