description
I either wasn't happy with or unable to operate the mutt aliases scripts I found on this site, so I wrote my own.  It reads your aliases from g:mutt_aliases_file (global var), or from the file indicated in ~/.muttrc, or from ~/.aliases.

It stores them in a complete function, which can be activated with either

    i_CTRL-X-CTRL-U  (see :help i_CTRL-X-CTRL-U)

or via an insert mode macro "@@".
 
install details
To install this script, put it somewhere in your ~.vim/ directory, or heck, any other place you'd like.  Then add lines to source the script at appropriate times, e.g:

    au BufRead /tmp/mutt-* source ~/.vim/scripts/mutt-aliases.vim
    au BufRead ./example.file source ./mutt-aliases.vim

I also made the [aliasname] show in the list of choices.
mutt-aliases.vim 0.92 2009-07-20 6.0 Paul Miller I made a couple little tweaks to this.  Nothing particularly special.
