Dear Mutt users,

I have just subscribed to this list; I use version 0.95.7i.

I have a problem with aliases. I tried to Bcc a message to many
recipients: at the Bcc prompt I pressed the Tab key, then I selected
the aliases from .mutt.aliases with the return key, and exited
the alias list. In the Bcc line at the bottom, the aliased addresses 
I had chosen had been fully expanded, but only the first 5 or 6 were present, 
because all the rest had been truncated, apparently because of a buffer 
limit for the Bcc line. Is there a way to increase this limit? 

In general, I find the alias management in Mutt to be quite deficent,
especially if compared to elm. With elm one could fully expand aliases
from the menu, modify aliases automatically, adding and deleting aliases 
without the need to explicitly edit the file, etc. 
With Mutt, I seem to be able only to alias received messages 
using keystroke menus, whereas all the rest must be done on the
.mutt.aliases file directly. Did I overlook anything among
Mutt's capabilities?

Thank you for your help.

Antonio Pievatolo
