Small tweaks to contact completion

[Ben Maughan]

I thought some of you might find my post on tweaking contact completion interesting

http://pragmaticemacs.com/emacs/tweaking-email-contact-completion-in-mu4e/

In it I describe how I add favourites to the front of the contact list, offer contact completion immediately on composing a new message, and a function to insert a contact anywhere.

Cheers,
 Ben

Great post Ben.
BTW, thank you for your pragmatic emacs.

I'm one of those who are learning emacs with it. :)

Best...

Ah - nice idea!

Anyway, I would however recommend against using any mu4e~ (private)
functions and variables; those are not stable and can (and will) change
at any time. Contact completion has changed considerably in recent
releases (so the blog post only works with the 0.9.16 release), and
might change again.

Still, it's nice to see people coming up with such extensions, and it's
good feedback to see how we can make mu4e better/easier extensible.

Cheers,
Dirk.

Yes, I had to make some changes with that update, but I was happy to do so as the improved contact sorting was very welcome! I should add a note about compatibility to the blog post.
