I'll be glad to be your guinea pig for that.  As I said, I have no intention of moving to bbdb 3 until either it supports XEmacs, or I find time to migrate off it at work.  I have a lot of custom code there that, initially anyway, doesn't port directly to GNU Emacs.

Well like I said, since a recent update, it's almost having the opposite effect as what I want with many messages from people in .bbdb going into the spam group.  I'm more than happy to try to help debug this, but I don't know where to begin.
