Is anyone out there using BBDB with MH? I started using it a few
days ago and had some problems when I started. BBDB was not
capturing the addresses from my mail messages; it turned out to be
a problem of being in the wrong buffer, and I fixed that.
Yes. I'm assuming that you mean that it wasn't autocapturing, right?
That is, if you type colon (:) in mh-folder-mode, it works, but always
prompts regardless of the value of bbdb-always-add-addresses and/or
bbdb/mail-auto-create-p, right? Yeah, I've seen that. Could you
forward your patch?
Also M-TAB was not bound in mh-letter-mode, and I fixed that.
Hmm. I hacked up a function which I bind to TAB. It tries to infer
whether you are in an address field. If so, it does
bbdb-complete-name, otherwise it inserts a tab (actually it does self
insert). I've included it at the end of this message.
However, now, if I use mh-reply (ie push "r" in mh), some routine
fails with "wrong argument type: stringp nil". This occurs after
the empty reply has created for me, but before the buffer has been
switched to mh-letter-mode. Also, once I fix the mode, C-c C-y
(ie. mh-yank-current-message) does not work (it does not have a
current message).
I do not see these problems.
