Glyn figured out the problem (see other thread). With bbdb/gnus-update-records-p set to nil, I can set bbdb-mua-auto-update-p to something like defun my-bbdb-select-message () "Add people to bbdb when in certain groups." (cond ((string-match "^nnimap:INBOX" gnus-newsgroup-name) (bbdb-select-message)) ((eq major-mode 'message-mode) (bbdb-select-message)) (t 'update))) ...and it actually takes effect.
