Hmmm... as i understand "distribution list" it's a new entry in the
database. On the other side, an alias is stored with the database entry to
which it belongs. For me, that's quite a difference.

I like the idea of 'one person -> one entry in the db'.

But i have to admit, that i never had a look at kaddressbook 3, so probably
it's already perfectly fine for me. :)

I don't like bbdb that much, but XEmacs/Gnus. I would like to use KAB for
managing all my addresses and contacts and use Gnus for my mails. One great
thing about kde-pim is the ability to synchronize with Palm or a cellular
phone.
