'C-h v bbdb-mua-interactive-action RET' returns: bbdb-mua-interactive-action is a variable defined in ‘bbdb.el’. Its value is (search . query) Which I think looks right, based on the documentation: ... search Search for existing records matching ADDRESS. update Search for existing records matching ADDRESS; update name and mail field if necessary. query Search for existing records matching ADDRESS; query for creation of a new record if the record does not exist. ... Ah! It finally dawned on me what this means! Tried 'C-u :' on a message in the summary buffer with the sender not present in the BBDB and I was queried whether to add the sender or not. And that is behaviour I can live with! Thanks!
