First one I think I figured out, but I wonder if it might still have some relevance - I was seeing undefined function errors. I fixed that by recompiling with a running Emacs that had bbdb loaded. However, now it seems that the bbdb matching function is no longer matching addresses that are clearly in my bbdb. Here's a snippets from *Messages*: gnus-registry-post-process-group: no matches for sender 'info@hfcu.org'. gnus-registry-post-process-group: no matches for recipients 'david '. spam-split: calling the spam-check-BBDB function Wrote /home/dsg/.Mail/spam/22071 info@hfcu.org is definitely in my bbdb. Would I just be better off exporting the bbdb to a whitelist file? Thanks, -- Dave Goldberg david.goldberg6@verizon.net
