I have been annoyed for a while that BBDB wasn't scanning already-seen
messages for new addresses. Even the `bbdb/vm-force-create' command didn't
work.
After some searching, I tracked down the problem to the default value of
the variable `bbdb/vm-update-records-mode', which was set to evaluate to
'searching for already-seen messages. I have no idea who set this. It
doesn't make sense to me.
The fix is to set this variable to 'annotating in your own .emacs file.
(setq bbdb/vm-update-records-mode 'annotating)
