    The patch is a guess after looking into mailabbrev.el.~1.61~.  It
    seems correct that the characters @%!._- have word constituent syntax
    when expanding mail abbrevs.

Does anyone see a problem with that idea?
Here's the full patch.

2002-09-08  Markus Rost  <address@hidden>

        * mail/mailabbrev.el (mail-abbrev-make-syntax-table): Give %!._-
        word constituent syntax.
