You know, that's _perfect!_
I've just converted all of my tags to mail-aliases. All I needed to do
was change sacha/bbdb-get-tags to
(defun sacha/bbdb-get-tags (record)
"Return the tags for RECORD as a list."
(let ((tags (bbdb-record-getprop record bbdb-define-all-aliases-field)))
(when tags (bbdb-split tags ","))))
and all of my old searching code worked. Not only does using
mail-aliases make completion easier in mail messages, but adding new
aliases is ridiculously easy with "a" (add alias to current record)
and "* a" (add alias to all visible records). This totally rocks!
Thanks, Mitra!
