Using the command to insert a mode abbrev C-x a + (add-mode-abbrev) while in message-mode (this reply) should pick the right mode to put the abbrev into right? Keywords: add-mode-abbrev: No per-mode abbrev table I have no such problems in other modes. I don't see a mail-mode-abbrevs table when I press M-x edit-abbrevs Only mail-abbrevs, which contains the contents of ~/.mailrc with each line followed by `mail-abbrev-expand-hook' [...] "name1" 0 "name1 " mail-abbrev-expand-hook "name2" 0 "name2 " mail-abbrev-expand-hook [...] If I hand edit abbrevs and add the one I want to mail-abbrevs it works but only in the header section in front of a To: From: or Cc:.
