Now I start to understand what you want to achieve and where things
appear to fail. So we are really talking about the default values of
some user variables.

I am trying to give the user variables default values that are not
too aggressive. But right now I do not understand anymore why the
default of bbdb-message-pop-up is nil. Anyway, the user needs to
call bbdb-mua-auto-update-init to get this working. Then it doesn't
make sense that bbdb-message-pop-up defaults to nil implying that
BBDB updates the records silently (probably very confusing for many
users). So I'll change the default of bbdb-message-pop-up to t.

Are there other user variables for which the default values are
irritating or confusing?
