Re: bbdb-ignore-some-messages-alist seems to ignore some alists

Thanks Erik,

I verified each of those bbdb variables (thanks for the tip on the C-h v) and made corrections.  Initially this didn't seem to resolve it completely, so I removed the entry which had been made for "helpdesk" in my bbdb file and now it works as expected.

Much appreciated,

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

You have some typos in your init file.

bbdb-pop-up-target-lines

Is this a variable in your bbdb? If so I think you have a very old
bbdb.

Could you check all variables with C-h v? Variables defined by bbdb
should have docstrings.

If you call C-h v when point is over a defined variable name you don’t
have to type tye variable name.

best, Erik
