Abbrev in message-mode


From: Emanuel Berg

User-agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/24.2 (gnu/linux)

Works:

(define-abbrev-table 'emacs-lisp-mode-abbrev-table
  '(("xx" "XX")) )

But, with `compose-mail', I get to "message-mode". Here, the
"mail-abbrevs" table works. It affects the "To:" header, and is setup
in ~/.mailrc:

alias jtr "Jack The Ripper <jack@ripper.com>"

But, how do I get abbrevs to work in the the actual *message*?

With `list-abbrev', I found these, but neither work. (They might even
relate to the *Messages* buffer, or to some other messages, I don't
know.)

(define-abbrev-table 'message-abbrevs
  '(("oh" "oh1")) )
(define-abbrev-table 'message-abbrev-table
  '(("oh" "oh2")) )
(define-abbrev-table 'message-mode-abbrev-table
  '(("oh" "oh3")) )

Note: Setting the "global-abbrev-table" works: it affects the "To:"
header as well as the message body.
