For whatever reason, which I'm sure is user error, I haven't been
able to get mutt aliases to work, while mailrc works fine:

$ mkdir aliases.git
$ cd !$
$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/dvhart/aliases.git/.git/
$ echo "joe Joe Blow joe@xxxxxxxxxx">  muttaliases

How about:

echo 'alias joe Joe Blow<joe@xxxxxxxxxx>'>  muttaliases

Indeed, that fixes it. I checked my reference for the mutt aliases format and apparently missed the "alias " clearly printed out there. My apologies.

The git send-email man page is surely sufficient for users of mutt, mailrc, pine, elm, gnus as they already have working configurations, but for those of us that use a different MUA and just want to get some sort of an address book for git, it would be nice to define these formats - it would only take one line per format type.

Thanks!
