Hey, thanks for linking to abook.  It looks like it might be exactly
what I've been looking for.

I think you're looking for the extra-contact-addresses hook, announced
about a month ago:


extra-contact-addresses
-----------------------
File: ~/.sup/hooks/extra-contact-addresses.rb
A list of extra addresses to propose for tab completion, etc. when the
user is entering an email address. Can be plain email addresses or can
be full "User Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" entries.

Variables: none
Return value: an array of email address strings.


Looks like, at present, you'll have to request the full db from abook
and pass it up to sup, and you'll have to do a bit of processing to
transform the format from mutt's "[EMAIL PROTECTED] Full Name" to "Full Name
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>".
