Is there any way to use the .mailrc _without_ using Abbrevs?
I don't like having them expanded live, but message-mode seems to have
removed the emacs functionality of doing it after sending. The last
FAQ I saw on the list says nothing about it.

I don't think so.

That is quite frustrating, since it means that I can't send mail to a
friend from Gnus. The poor soul is stuck with an X.400 address which
is three lines long. Emacs simply refuses to send mail to that
address directly, but I managed to send mail by defining an alias with
`define-mail-alias' and send mail to that. This doesn't work anymore
with message.el, since it expands the alias first.

Then this should be fixed. Why does Emacs refuse to send a mail with
a long To header? Message just does a `call-process-region' that
feeds the outgoing mail to sendmail. Does sendmail choke on long To
headers?

Well, I was too fast. The real problems were:
1) The .mailrc syntax doesn't work with addresses that contains both
spaces and quotes.
2) The lisp substitute, `define-mail-alias' was renamed
`define-mail-abbrev'..
There is one problem though... Whenever I insert the alias it gets
filled automatically, so I have to manually delete the linefeeds
afterwards.
