indeed.
unfortunately, if you have stuff in `bbdb-auto-notes-alist', if will be
acted upon first.
I.e., if you have "John Doe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" and you stumble upon a
"John Doe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" with "Organization: BAR on-line!" and you
have set `bbdb-auto-notes-alist' to '(("Organization" (".*" company 0))),
then you will get "BAR on-line!" into the "company" of "John Doe
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" _before_ being asked whether this is the same <jdoe>.
