It's a minor aesthetic thing, but in my mailing list folders (such as 
mutt-users), I like to see the actual sender even when it's me. I.e. 
"Kyle Wheeler" instead of "To mutt-users@m".

Now that I think of it, for some mailing lists (such as bugtraq), I 
don't even have the sender in the index_format (I use most of the 
space for the subject, since messages to that mailing list are often 
prefixed with pointless, long tags). If I were to select a postponed 
message while viewing *that* mailing list, I wouldn't have any idea 
who the recipient of my postponed messages was either.
