Re: Problem creating record

Hi Roland,

many thanks for your help. After reading your comment, I just modified
bbdb-mua-auto-update-p to 'search and then I have the perfect (for me)
setting:

* when reading messages in Gnus if the sender is in the database it
  automatically shows its record in the BBDB buffer and when I move to
  another message, the BBDB buffer is changed automatically to show the
  new sender.

* if I move to read a message whose sender is not in the database, the
  BBDB buffer is just empty (assuming it had been previously created
  with another message, otherwise no BBDB buffer is shown), but BBDB
  doesn't automatically add it to the database or ask me if I want to
  include it. For that I have to type ":" and then BBDB offers me the
  option to include it. That way I can grom my BBDB database in a more
  controlled fashion.

So, if it can be of any help to someone in the future, here it is my
final BBDB configuration lines in .emacs
