Please go ahead and post your patch, either to this list, or perhaps to a ticket. It looks like http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3369 or http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3491 might be related.

Yoshiki Vazquez Baeza posted a patch for this a couple months ago, and David Champion is incorporating it into a related patch set. -Kevin
