You can also use the approach of setting index_format to contain
        %?M?<%2M>&%4c?

This will display the number of hidden children in a collapsed thread
instead of the message size whenever a displayed message is a thread
leader.  I prefer this, since it gives more information and uses less
color.  (I save my colors for other things.)

(Actually, my index_format the shows the number of children if there
are collapsed children, or else the number of attachments if there are
attachments, or else the message size.  Quite a space-time-saver. :) )
