sure -- attached.  Sorry for delay; it only handles the Emacs case, I'm
sorry that I can't help with XEmacs, but it looks like only mailabbrev
is supported anyway currently within GNUS.

  After adding lines like this to your @file{~/.mailrc} file, you should
  be able to just write @samp{lmi} in the @code{To} or @code{Cc} (and so
! on) headers and press @kbd{SPC} to expand the alias.
  
  No expansion will be performed upon sending of the message---all
  expansions have to be done explicitly.

! aliases is also available, so if @samp{lmi} is the only alias beginning
! with l, then typing @samp{l} followed by @kbd{TAB} will expand the alias.
