Tecky, <hmmm> shouldn't take too long to figure out his mail problems then should it:) Actually, most mail clients that we use in text mode of linux have their own address books. I know for certain that with both pine and mutt, another mail program, "aliases" or address book entries are maintained and completely accessible to the message composer. They typically involve giving the address entry a short name or "tag" and then when writing a message, you can simply put in that "tag" in the to: or cc: field of the message and the address(es) are expanded and properly resolved. I happen to use mutt; it takes a bit to configure just the way you want at first but it runs like a true champ for me now.
