cool, thanks

yesh, it seems like that. When I expand the width of the terminal - it
fixes them (depending on how long they are).

real screen size (as in width of terminal) is generally pretty much set
to 80 chars wide. AFAIK any setting I've touched reflects this.

Not sure what you mean by "stty size" though - is that  .muttrc thing?
if so - it's not in there AFAIK.
Otherwise - where do I look? (newbie here with a lot to learn still)

This line:
set index_format="%4C %Z %[!%d/%m] %-17.17F (%3l) %s"
seems to be the closest things i can find in .muttrc that might be
appropriate...  but it doesn't seem to have width in it anywhere...
and I'm not entirely sure what these format strings do. 
My guess is they show what things appear in the index view in what order
which is why it might be appropriate - but I can't seem to find anything
in the vim help on it... :P

Note: I definitely didn't have this problem before I altered the
character set :(
I was pretty sure I touched nothing but the encoding setting... <sigh>

Chers,
Taryn
