On a related note, it is interesting that Mutt will display one value
for this expander (%c) in the index, before the message has been viewed,
and another (smaller) value, after it has been viewed. It seems that
the server gives one value when the folder is scanned, then Mutt
calculates a different value for the message size (probably without
headers) for the message after it has been downloaded.
