You're right. It's a *horrible* question to ask. Hehe, no, sometimes
this list gets mail from AOL users trying to cancel their account. THOSE
are bad questions to ask ::)

Mutt stores addresses in a simple flatfile. Aliases are really simple:
alias nickname Stuff You Want It To Expand To

ex:
alias questions FreeBSD Questions <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

That being said, it *IS* different from the pine address book format.
Luckily, you can convert between the two.
Check out http://www.netmeister.org/apps/pine2mutt/index.html
That program converts pine's .addressbook to mutt-style aliases.

Somebody want to port it?
