It depends on how the alias is implemented. If you can telnet to nodename.com's SMTP port, and if it's sendmail is polite enough to allow you to query it,
then you might be able to EXPN alias.
i.e,
% telnet foo.bar.com 25
Trying...
Connected to foo.bar.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 foo.bar.com sendmail (version #1d234567e+QPX) ready at Fri, 18 Dec 92
expn alias
250 <john@foo>
..
Or, if that doesn't work, you might just want to mail
