Comment(by pdmef):
Well, mutt passes the string in {} directly to strftime. On OS X all
abbreviated month names are 3 chars long, and %6b gives me 6b. So, this is
more a strftime issue. It would be horrible to parse the output of
strftime in mutt and allow for portable formatting rules.
A workaround is using
{{{
index_format="%4C %Z %-6.6{!%b} %{!%d} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s"
}}}
and replace -6.6 with the length of the longest abbreviated month name.
I'm afraid there isn't much mutt can do about strftime() output.
