On the To: line I type in part of the address of someone inside BBDB,
and hit TAB and the address is completed, but trailing blanks are added,
that I have to clean up before I put a comma and the next address, lest
my message look dumb, at least to me.

TAB (translated from <tab>) runs the command message-tab, which is an
interactive compiled Lisp function in `message.el'.

It is bound to TAB.

(message-tab)

Complete names according to `message-completion-alist'.
Execute function specified by `message-tab-body-function' when not in
those headers.

message-completion-alist is a variable defined in `message.el'.
Its value is 
(("^\\(Newsgroups\\|Followup-To\\|Posted-To\\|Gcc\\):" . message-expand-group)
 ("^\\(Resent-\\)?\\(To\\|B?Cc\\):" . message-expand-name)

message-expand-name is a compiled Lisp function in `message.el'.

(message-expand-name)

Not documented.

(defun message-expand-name ()
  (cond ((and (memq 'eudc message-expand-name-databases)
                    (boundp 'eudc-protocol)
                    eudc-protocol)
         (eudc-expand-inline))
        ((and (memq 'bbdb message-expand-name-databases)
              (fboundp 'bbdb-complete-name))
         (bbdb-complete-name))
        (t
         (expand-abbrev))))

bbdb-complete-name is an interactive compiled Lisp function in
`bbdb-com.el'....

Some name get more blanks attached than others, consistently. Maybe
there was some tab that got expanded to spaces. Anyway, if one cannot
track down what is adding the spaces, at least be sure to trim them off
before inserting anything.

By the way, in this buffer
  Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
  In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.
One finds left mouse works fine too.
