Messrs. vs. Mr.?

[Englishfan]

Hi, is Messrs. the plural of Mrs.? If so, what does Messrs. send for? I mean Mr. stands for Mister and it seems Messrs. is also an abbreviation. What is the full version of Messrs. then? Thanks for all your explanations in 2005 and I look forward to your answers in 2006 ;-)

Messrs = Messieurs (abbr. plural of Monsieur). It is the formal way of addressing a letter to several Misters.
