I'd guess someone had a %2d where they needed a %02d in a sprintf format
string.

Ya see, nothwithstanding the exchange of net.custard-pies, I enjoy discussing
stuff with Mike, because I know that the positions he adopts are ones he's
arrived at after careful thought and honest reflection. - Jeremy Henderson

I thought of that but that can't be it.  The time string is perfectly
whole in the mail spool file; it's only when mutt displays it that it
gets screwy, and really, the From_ line is spaced and printed just at it
exists in the spool file except for that blanking -- can't imgine that it
sould be parsed and resubjected to printf.
