I couldn't get the tab completion to work, at least if I go
M-x notmuch-show-resend-message
nor when evaluating (notmuch-address-from-minibuffer "foo:")
Do I need to bind a key to test this?

mutt uses 'b'. AFAICT, gnus uses some sequence ending in b to resend
bounced messages (i.e. from mailer-daemon).
quoting the manual:
S D b
If you have sent a mail, but the mail was bounced back to you for
some reason (wrong address, transient failure), you can use this
command to resend that bounced mail
(gnus-summary-resend-bounced-mail). [...]
S D r
Not to be confused with the previous command,
gnus-summary-resend-message will prompt you for an address to send
the current message off to, and then send it to that place. [...]
Be that as it may, we already use 'r' for reply, and I'm not sure we
want to go (more) in the way of multi-letter sequences.
