Read the Alias Users Guide :-) (Really, it is quite well explained
there). Section two describes group aliases. The format is:

	aliasname list = groupname = list of people

wher the "lst of people" is in the same foat as the aliasname
list. So for your example you would want:

joe = Joe's name = hostname!user1
jane = Jane's name = hostname!user2
r_d = R & D Group = joe, jane
