Hello,

Now that bbdb v3 is happily talking with Gnus, it has become obsessive
about adding email addresses and names to the database, even if they
exist. Reading through mails this morning, it kept prompting me to add
addresses for people that already exist in the database. In one example,
it added the same address six times! Should it not know that the same
address is already in the database for that person and not ask to add it
again? 

Below is my configuration, if need be I would be will to just change it
to automatic to avoid the constant disruptions, but then the database
will be filled with hundreds of duplicate emails. What am I doing
incorrectly?

Custom set in init file:

 '(bbdb-complete-mail t) ; do we need this
 '(bbdb-file "~/org/.bbdb")
 '(bbdb-mail-alias (quote star))

In the emacs file read after the init file:

  (bbdb-initialize 'gnus 'message)
  (bbdb-mua-auto-update-init 'gnus)
  (setq bbdb-complete-mail-allow-cycling t)
  ;; control pop-up and it's size
  (setq bbdb-message-pop-up nil)
  
  ;; What do we do when invoking bbdb interactively
  (setq bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p '(query . create))
  
  ;; Make sure we look at every address in a message and not only the
  ;; first one
  (setq bbdb-message-all-addresses t)
  (add-hook 'message-setup-hook 'bbdb-mail-aliases)


Thanks, Aric
