I've been experimenting with "subscribe" (had previously used "lists"),
and am trying to use folder-hooks to set index_foramt, but the following
settings are generating 

    %Z: unknown variable
    
messages when I start mutt, and indexes consist of nothing but the post
ID.

    # Mailbox index default:
    set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15F (%4l) %s"
    # ...and sent
    folder-hook !sent set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%4l) %s"
    folder-hook sent set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15F (%4l) %s"

Thoughts?
