I want to keep contact information in BBDB, but my experience with auto-create in Wanderlust was that BBDB got filled with a lot of uninteresting and useless emails. I know I can have auto-create filter out what's created, but I would rather control when a record is created. What I would like is this: - If a e-mail arrives from (or cc'ing) know e-mails, it does the pop-up window and shows the bbdb record. - If the record or records are not in bbdb, by hitting the ':' key (or whatever) it creates a record for me to edit. - It would be nice also if the e-mail name and address in the header had different colors based on whether they are known or unknown. Does anyone have such a setup that they could share with a poor newbie? Thanks. -- Daniel E. Doherty
