I learnt to use e-mail with elm - a text interface for Unix mail. They had
a brilliantly simple address book. Each entry in the book was considered
an alias, so if I had a friend [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the address
book entry was 'joe', I could type joe in the to or CC fields and the
machine would find the address from the book. It worked very well. It
can't be hard to integrate in Arachne.
