I have the same problem with my +sent-mail directory. I
displays my name and the not who the mail was sent to even
though I'm using this index_format in .muttrc
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-18.18F (%4c) %s"
I verified that my name is correct on the /etc/passwd file,
since mutt checks there, and it was wrong and I fixed it and
it's still not working.
Is there anything else I can check that would cause this?
thanks,
jc
