Still doesn't work.  I tried %-15.15F, %-18.18L and %-18.18F
   and my +sent-mail still shows the From: header (my name) and
   not the To: header.  It's like mutt's not recognizing my name. 
   I've been playing with the index_format for some time now
   using any possible option listed in 'man muttrc' with no luck.
   
   Any other suggestions are most welcome.
   
   thanks,
   jc
