The solution you describe (in <MDB.92Jun11145441@noaacrd.colorado.edu>)
does not work properly (at least not for me) --- it expands aliases even if
they appear in the body of the letter, not just in the headers as it is
supposed to. 

What works for me (in my .vm file) is 

(require 'mail-abbrevs)
(setq mail-setup-hook 'mail-aliases-setup-v18)
