by default the $query_command completion command is ctrl-t, and you can use that in the prompt for to/cc/bcc/etc. > macro index,pager A "abook --add-email" "add the sender address to abook" does that actually work? I don't think so. I think mutt would tell you "abook: unknown command" > macro generic,index,pager \ca "abook" "launch abook" I don't think this will work either. > and what's the point in having two "addressbook"s? I like having my commonly used addresses be quickly accessible through aliases and have actual *tab* completion. There are about 20 addresses in my alias list. I then use my full address book for other information about people, addresses, phone numbers, etc. Also, mutt's alias lookup is very fast, whereas query_command can be much more expensive (read: slow) depending on what the query_command is actually doing. -Jeremy
