to_chars not working any more, why?



Hi folks,

I believe I have read the manual and FAQ, and I still don't know
what is wrong.

Basically, I used to see stuff from to_chars in my index of my inbox.

Now, they never get shown.

I have the following lines in my muttrc:

set to_chars=" +TCFL"
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%m/%d} %-15.15F (%4c) %s" # format of the index

However, adding "%T" to the latter after the %Z doesn't show anything different.

I've moved my muttrc to a different directory, and I lose the colors, among
other things, so I know it's getting sourced.  However, the default config
also does not show to_chars.

I'm using Maildir format, and postfix is the MTA, and it has:
home_mailbox = Maildir/

I'm suspecting that I toggled something off, or on, or that mutt does not
show to_chars in some circumstances, but I can't figure out what's going on.

Thank you in advance...
