IMHO there were no changes to the algo, but a change I can recall was changing the default of bbdb-use-pop-up from t to 'horiz. Form the header of your message I assume you are using Gnus and I can confirm this problem with Gnus and found a bug in the VM code which selects the right window for the split. Also the documentation is quite odd here and I will rewrite that code, i.e. HORIZ-PREDICATE should only be a predicate for selecting the right window and `bbdb-use-pop-up' should select how to split that window ... Anyway, you should be fine with (setq bbdb-use-pop-up t) for now. Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
