Mutt already shows all aliases with <TAB> - but you have to invoke this
when mutt prompts you for an address on one of the address lines.
Mutt also interfaces to address databases such as lbdb and bbdb
(little/big brother database) - but I have not used tehse yet.
Emacs is also able to support these databases *and* knows about
the mutt aliases in the alias file with a special setup
so you can request "header editing" with mutt and
have Emacs expand your aliases within the edit buffer.

Naah. ;-)
Thanks for the CC, Eugene, - now I see that I was
unsubscribed to the mutt maillist since Xmas. :-(
