Thank you, I was unclear in the way in which I wrote the above. It was
ambiguous, my apologies.

I was looking for the message size in kb
This is my index-format as it presently stands, showing time but (I
think) no mail size...or put another way, no mail size I understand.

<snip>
#This is OK but doesn't show the mail size in kb
set index_format = "[%4C] [%Z] [ %[%b%d (%H:%M)] ] %-25.25L : %s "
</snip>

BUT
I also tried this.
I *think* it showed the mail size in kb but it munged the time.
Any attempt I made to get the time in there as well (%H: %M) was
unsuccessful
<snip>
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15F (%4l) %s"
</snip>

I've done some reading into the index format tokens but ran out of time.
There's definitely much more reading I have to do in order to properly
understand this.

Many thanks for the response!!
