Tree view messed up

2010-10-07 Thread the . real . kabel
Hello list,

I have a short question regarding tree view in mutt. I use the following
configuration in my muttrc:
 set sort=threads
 set strict_threads=yes
 set sort_browser=reverse-date
 set sort_aux=date-sent

And this ends with a view that is somehow broken, I mean the arrows
are not underneath each other. An little screenshot can be seen here in
[0], I hope this makes clear what I mean.

This is certainly due to the different length of the sender. Is there
any way to fix this?

I use: Mutt 1.5.20 (2009-06-14)

With best regards,
the real kabel

That's your entire muttrc?

It looks like your $index_format setting is either incorrectly 
limiting your sender lengths OR your sender's names have characters in 
them that mutt is having trouble getting a good length of (e.g. 
characters that occupy two columns).

Hey,

indeed it was a broken $index_format. Thanks a lot for pointing me to
this :)
