Notably, our internal ticketing system (RT3) generates email that comes from a central email account that attaches other names to that email. What I want is for that email account to be treated as our "Tech Support"; whenever a ticket email comes in, the email has a From: line like the following: From: "Christopher Browne via RT" BBDB proposes to update the name on that email address to "Christopher Browne via RT"; as time goes by, if I allow that, various AKA entries emerge such that the address is associated with the names of fairly much everyone at the office. Is there some hook function I can add in such that I could say something like: (if (member? email-address '("systems@ca.afilias.info" "techsupport@ca.afilias.info")) (abort-dont-bother-associating)) I'm making that up, of course :-). -- (reverse (concatenate 'string "moc.liamg" "@" "enworbbc")) http://cbbrowne.com/info/emacs.html Rules of the Evil Overlord #85. "I will not use any plan in which the final step is horribly complicated, e.g. "Align the 12 Stones of Power on the sacred altar then activate the medallion at the moment of total eclipse." Instead it will be more along the lines of "Push the button."
