Package: mutt-patched
Version: 1.6.0-1
Severity: normal
Since the upgrade from 1.5.24-1 to 1.6.0-1, the mailbox name shown
in the sidebar has the uri://user@ prepended to the name. Given the
hard-coded 31-character limit, it's not possible to differentiate
some of the accounts I have, in particular, those that have usernames
of the format:
first.l...@example.com
The full URIs are of the form:
imaps://first.l...@example.com@mail.internal.mycompany.test
imaps://first.l...@example.com@mail-external.mycompany.test
Both get truncated to:
imaps://first.l...@example.com@
As a workaround, I tried:
set sidebar_shortpath=yes
mailboxes imaps://first.l...@example.com@mail.internal.mycompany.test
imaps://first.l...@example.com@mail-external.mycompany.test
Leads to the mailbox names in the sidebar being an empty string,
If an explicit folder name is used, that folder name is shown, but that
makes it impossible to differentiate imaps://u...@example.com/INBOX and
imaps://u...@example.org/INBOX from each other.
Using the attached patch solved it for me, after setting the sidebar
width to a larger value.
