Are you sourcing the file to which the aliases are being added
($alias_file)? If the file is not being sourced, then the "alias"
is taken to be a local user, so the hostname is appended.
# set alias_file="~/.muttrc"
#
# Name: alias_file
# Type: path
# Default: "~/.muttrc"
#
#
# The default file in which to save aliases created by the
# ``create-alias'' function.
#
# Note: Mutt will not automatically source this file; you must
# explicitly use the ``source'' command for it to be executed.
#
Note the last paragraph.
