What about email aliases or nicknames as they are called in netscape.
In the latter all people in my addressbook have a nickname assigned according 
the following convention:
<first character first name><first 2 character last name> (e.g. Carsten 
Pfeiffer = cpf and Ingo Klöcker = ikl)  This works very well and there are 
hardly any similar aliases.  So in most cases I only need to type 3 
characters and <CR> and I've the correct email address.  It would be great if 
kmail will support this as well, but that may be cumbersome in combination 
with the auto completion functionality.  Don't whether the addressbook 
supports email aliases.
