Description sa wu 2008-12-31 21:02:15 UTC

The sidebar in mutt misaligns the number of mails per mailbox when using multibyte characters for names of mailboxes (e.g umlauts etc) or the delimiter string.
It seems something more appropriate for utf8 should replace 'strlen'.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add mailbox with any multibyte character (umlauts etc) to mutt
2. enable sidebar patch
3.

Actual Results:  
number of mails in mailboxes misaligned, everything else seems to be fine

Expected Results:  
right aligned number of mails
