Package: mutt-patched Version: 1.6.0-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
after having updated mutt(-patched) today from 1.5.24-1 to 1.6.0-1, i noticed that long mailbox names are no longer truncated, and as consequence mailbox sizes are no longer visible for some mailboxes, since the name takes the whole space. I remember the default behaviour of the previous version(s) was to truncate long mailbox names to leave space to mailbox sizes, like in the soft-fill format. Now it's the opposite. Particularly, i never had to use the sidebar_format option in my .muttrc (i don't even know wheter it has been introduced now or was already there, just to say). At this point, i tried getting the good ol' behaviour setting the sidebar_format option, but it doesn't seem to do what i want. You can consider this simplified test version: set sidebar_format = "%B%* %S" With this format string I'd expect the rightmost part (mailbox size) to be always visible because of the soft-fill (e.g. " 219"), and have the mailbox name truncated at some point if it is too long, or padded with ' ' if it is too short. Anyway as i said, this is not working as expected, but it behaves like the regular right-alignment was used ('%> ') since the mailbox sizes are right-aligned, but mailbox names take the precedence when they are too long. So: - Is soft-fill even supported by the sidebar_format option? - Is there an equivalent way to obtain this behaviour in the sidebar? - Am i misunderstanding something? In the same way, also the default value of the sidebar_format option specified in the man page (Default: ā%B%?F? [%F]?%* %?N?%N/?%4Sā) is not doing its job. Let me know if you need additional infos.
