...almost.

Evidently, you only get to use TAB once (or never, if you have the bad
luck to have a *Completions* buffer already), then I run into this:

------------------------------
Signalling: (buffer-read-only #<buffer "*Completions*">)
  erase-buffer()
  message-expand-group()
  #<compiled-function (from "message.elc") nil "...(13)" [message-newgroups-header-regexp mail-abbrev-mode-regexp mail-abbrev-in-expansion-header-p message-expand-group tab-to-tab-stop] 1 "Expand group names in Newsgroups and Followup-To headers.\nDo a `tab-to-tab-stop' if not in those headers." nil>()
  call-interactively(message-tab)
------------------------------

Unfortunately when I use TAB completion, 99% fo the time I use it more
than once successivley.

This is using XEmacs; does GNU Emacs behave differently?
