Hmmm, I was not aware of this technique, but how about
puting the following function definition in your .emacs and
call it from mail-mode-hook.  With this, we can aboid
unnecessary call of build-mail-aliases and load of
"mailalias".

(defun mail-check-aliases ()
  (if (and (boundp 'mail-aliases) mail-aliases)
      (let* ((time (nth 5 (file-attributes "~/.mailrc"))))
	(if (boundp 'mail-aliases-time)
	    (if (or (> (car time) (car mail-aliases-time))
		    (and (= (car time) (car mail-aliases-time))
			 (> (car (cdr time))
			    (car (cdr mail-aliases-time)))))
		(setq mail-aliases t)))
	(setq mail-aliases-time time))))
