You're right, the index format was the (one) thing you were looking for, but I included the rest of those options because I find them useful and, somewhat, related (and someone may not have been aware of those capabilities). | Thanks, though, for pointing me at the right part of TFM to R! You're welcome. Actually, now that I think of it, someone posted an index format a while back that shows either the length of the message _or_ the number of messages in the thread if the thread is collapsed. That would use less screen real estate than my (current) format that shows the length of the first message _and_ the thread length if it is collapsed. I've been meaning to copy it so I can have longer subject lines, but haven't gotten around to it yet. -D
