But that asks me to edit the notes field :) All I want is to add a
record! Customization of "bbdb-mua-update-interactive-p" makes much more
sense to me.

I'm using git versions of gnus and bbdb, and something somewhere loves
to put a "->" in the minibuffer when I hit ";" for
bbdb-mua-edit-notes-sender and a few other actions, I can't quite see a
pattern. I don't know who to blame for this "->", but it overrides
whatever other helpful hints the minibuffer should have been showing me,
and in general makes it very difficult to get things done. Has anyone
else seen this? What on earth is it doing?

Thanks,
E
