One of the annoying features of this interface is that it generates a random false email address in the `From:' header. This causes bbdb to ask me if I want to add the new email address for people I have in my database. To put it mildly, this is annoying. I've tried the following in .xemacs/custom.el with no success. (setq bbdb-quiet-about-name-mismatches 1) (setq bbdb-use-alternate-names nil) (setq bbdb-use-alternate-names nil) (setq bbdb-always-add-addresses 1) (setq bbdb-canonicalize-redundant-nets-p t) Not sure what I'm doing wrong here, any ideas? -- Cheers | ~~ __@ Euan | ~~ _-\<, Melbourne, Australia | ~ (*)/ (*)
