Me too! I use mutt-alias.el and post.el which are both available from
http://www.davep.org/mutt/

post.el is a mail mode for Emacs that contains various functions
including automatic line wrapping. mutt-alias.el allows the insertion
and lookup of your mutt aliases in emacs. (Instructions and other
add-ons at the site above.)
I saved the two files into my ~/.Emacs folder, and entered the
following into my ~/.emacs file:-

;; This loads the function to enable mutt aliases in Emacs and binds
;; insert to ^c^i and lookup to ^c^l
(require 'mutt-alias)
(global-set-key [(control c)(control i)] 'mutt-alias-insert)
(global-set-key [(control c)(control l)] 'mutt-alias-lookup)

;; This loads the mode for writing mail for Mutt
(require 'post)

N.B. I'm still a newbie to Emacs (& Linux in general) so although this
works fine for me, I'm not sure it is the best syntax for .emacs.
