I, too, have a Maildir Spotlight importer on my list of projects. I have made no more or no less progress on it than you have, apparently :) It's really too bad that Apple didn't choose Maildir for Mail.app's message storage; my understanding is that its format is very similar. I recently did some research on integrating Address Book.app with Emacs, and decided to use external-abook.el rather than the eudc-* stuff. It works great, so far. Did you know about it when you chose eudc-mab, and is there any particular reason you chose the latter instead? At the moment I'm using external-abook.el along with bbdb, mostly because of bbdb's snarfing. I have to use C-c TAB to expand addresses with external-abook.el, which is a bit of a pain, because my muscle memory is wired to use plain old tab ala bbdb. I should figure out what I need to do to swap the expand keys. edit: the latest version of external-abook.el that I can find is here: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/external-abook.el http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/external-abook.el There's a git repo on Github somewhere, too, but the version on Emacswiki has some fixes that the Github one doesn't. Many developers of small, but useful, Emacs extensions have an unfortunate tendency to maintain their code on Emacswiki, rather than in a proper VCS. Oh well. *edit2: typo fix in edit.
