When I switched to XEmacs 19.12 from FSF Emacs 19.28, I found my .bbdb
incomprehensible to XEmacs because it contained a nonsense like
#("Joe" 0 3 (face custom-face-SkyeBlue-default-default-t-t-nil)) where
the string "Joe" should have been.
I assume this happened because my newsreader highlights article
headers in this way and bbdb grabbed the text with all its attributes
and shoved it in the .bbdb. Is there a way to avoid this behavior? I
managed to fix it up with a macro no problem, but it seems like
something to be avoided.
