hi,
I have sent this message to a couple of places, it seems I
have been confused about where to send it, sorry to those I have
bothered, and I hope I have got things straight now.
I have been using bbdb for a while now. I like it alot,
however there is one problem I can't seem to get straight. I have
defined a mail-alias field for many people and I run the function
bbdb-define-all-aliases in the mail-setup-hook, but somehow the
define alias is never run on those entries because when I look at the
mail-aliases variable it is nil. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any info...
Eric
p.s. here is my setup from my .emacs
;; MAIL, RMAIL and BBDB DEFS
(setq rmail-file-name "~/Mail/RMAIL")
(setq rmail-last-rmail-file "~/Mail/XMAIL")
(setq mail-yank-prefix ">")
;;(setq mail-signature t)
(add-hook 'mail-send-hook (function (lambda () (mail-signature nil))))
