This looks quite nice; I have been missing the possibility of a regex
search for mail addresses and the combination with ido is quite
appealing.
How do you invoke it? I am currently struggling with the interactions
between .mailrc (emacs mail aliases, expanding as abbrevs) and bbdb
(expanding with TAB). This is partly why I haven't even considered
using org-contacts yet...
As always, with Emacs, too many choices, too little time! ;-)
