@vindex message-mail-alias-type
The @code{message-mail-alias-type} variable controls what type of mail
-alias expansion to use. Currently only one form is supported---Message
-uses @code{mailabbrev} to handle mail aliases. If this variable is
+alias expansion to use. Currently two forms are supported:
+@code{mailabbrev} and @code{ecomplete}. If this variable is
@code{nil}, no mail alias expansion will be performed.
@code{mailabbrev} works by parsing the @file{/etc/mailrc} and
No expansion will be performed upon sending of the message---all
expansions have to be done explicitly.
+If you're using @code{ecomplete}, all addresses from @code{To} and
+@code{Cc} headers will automatically be put into the
+@file{~/.ecompleterc} file. When you enter text in the @code{To} and
+@code{Cc} headers, @code{ecomplete} will check out the values stored
+there and ``electrically'' say what completions are possible. To
+choose one of these completions, use the @kbd{M-n} command to move
+down to the list. Use @kdb{M-n} and @kdb{M-p} to move down and up the
+list, and @kdb{RET} to choose a completion.
