What do I need to know about e-mail addresses in mutt?

If you are you are sending mail to another user on the same machine, it is not necessary to type in the full address. You only need to type in the person's login name.

If you are sending mail to any other machine that has the upenn.edu domain, you do not have to type in the upenn.edu part of the address. For example, the address user@mail.med.upenn.edu becomes user@mail.med.

There are also alias names for certain machines. For example, you can mail someone in School of Engineering as user@seas instead of user@eniac.seas.upenn.edu. This also applies for user@wharton and user@sas.

You can also set up advanced aliases in mutt if you want to create shortcuts.
