Please read the mutt manual [1], section 4.8 par. 2 and section
6.3.80. To be short, the default format for the message index replaces
the name and address of the sender with the name of the mailing list,
if the message is recognized to be a list mail. This is useful to
distinguish between list mail and private mail in the same mailbox,
but can be annoying if you keep the messages from mailing lists in
separate mailboxes.
Put the following line in your ~/.muttrc to turn off this behaviour:
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15f (%4l) %s"
