See docs for Message Mode: `info message'.
I define my aliases in .mailrc, the file consists of lines like
alias carmen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When composing a message I can use carmen as an abbreviation. The
abbreviations are expanded the same way as usual emacs abbrevs.
You can define an alias for more than one address, too.
