Hi Xavier,

here is a suggestion. Try to be more precise in your questions the
next time, like this: instead of just asking

  I remember having done automatic capturing/storing of emacs
  addresses into BBDB each time I was reading a mail.

  Does HyRolo have this ? If not, how difficult would it be doing so ?

add something like:

  I would be grateful if people could tell me the main key sequences,
  elisp functions, and sections of the manual that would involved in
  that - and more grateful if anyone could include an example, of
  course!

Different packages/communities handle technical details in different
ways. I discussed this a bit in my presentation at the last EmacsConf:

  14. Should we include technical details?

In the eev mailing list - and in IRC chats - I always try to include
bits of elisp in my answers. But that's a strategy - I do that to
scare away "users" and people who want purely textual explanations of
everything...

By the way, you could also have asked which parts of "automatic
capturing/storing of emacs addresses" can already be done with just
the action key of Hyperbole, and how...

  Cheers! =)
