Mail mode provides special commands to move to particular header fields and to complete addresses in headers.
| C-c C-f C-t |
Move to the ` |
| C-c C-f C-s | Move to the `Subject' header field, creating one if there is
none (mail-subject).
|
| C-c C-f C-c | Move to the `CC' header field, creating one if there is none
(mail-cc).
|
| C-c C-f C-b | Move to the `BCC' header field, creating one if there is none
(mail-bcc).
|
| C-c C-f C-f | Move to the `FCC' header field, creating one if there is none
(mail-fcc).
|
M-TAB
|
Complete a mailing address (mail-complete).

There are five commands to move point to particular header fields, all
based on the prefix C-c C-f (`C-f' is for ``field''). They
are listed in the table above. If the field in question does not exist,
these commands create one. We provide special motion commands for these
particular fields because they are the fields users most often want to
edit.
While editing a header field that contains mailing addresses, such as
`To:', `CC:' and `BCC:', you can complete a mailing
address by typing M-TAB (mail-complete). It inserts
the full name corresponding to the address, if it can determine the full
name. The variable mail-complete-style controls whether to insert
the full name, and what style to use, as in mail-from-style
(see Mail Headers).
For completion purposes, the valid mailing addresses are taken to be the local users' names plus your personal mail aliases. You can specify additional sources of valid addresses; use the customization buffer to see the options for this.
If you type M-TAB in the body of the message, it invokes
ispell-complete-word, as in Text mode.
