+
+ A regular expression used by Mutt-ng to parse the GECOS field of a password
+ entry when expanding the alias. By default the regular expression is set to
+ ``^[^,]*'' which will return the string up to the first ``,'' encountered. If
+ the GECOS field contains a string like 'lastname, firstname' then you should
+ do: set gecos_mask='.*'.
+
+ This can be useful if you see the following behavior: you address a e-mail to
+ user ID stevef whose full name is Steve Franklin. If Mutt-ng expands stevef to
+ ``Franklin'' stevef@foo.bar then you should set the gecos_mask to a regular
