On the python-users mailing lists, there are posts from a user who
forges his From: email address to something like:

Joe User <http://phr...@nospam.invalid>

The result in mutt with "index_format" set to:

.... %-30.30n ...

is that the following is displayed in the index:

python-list-bounces+pgenpaul=gmail....@python.org instead of "Joe User"

I edited the mbox and changed the malformed email address in the From:
field, to:

Joe User <phr...@nospam.invalid>

and on the particular message this fixed the problem.

Does anyone know why this is happening, and how I can work around it?

Thanks,

Gen-Paul.
