alias failures



I have my muttaddresses.txt set and have many entries in it.

I can use 'a' to add and aliases.  It works.

However, when trying to use and alias, ie typing the alias of an
address in a to: field when composing a message the alias fails to
work. In other words, the short name does not expand to the full
address.  

The really strange thing with this as that new aliases, that have been
added in the last couple of days work. Old entries do not. I've open
the file in an editor, both vi and emacs and can see not strange
characters to indicate file corruption.

Any other idea's. 

 and yes, I do have set alias_file=~/muttaddresses.txt in .muttrc
