[alias] is used to hold command-line alias, and it seems
slightly confusing to have two sections that mean something
quite different.

Perhaps

[mail "alias"]
	lkml = linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org

if we are going to have other mail-related configurations that
might turn out be handy.  send-email would want smtp-server in
there, for example.
