I tried this patch -- works great, thanks.

One minor nit, probably material for another patch: the list of names
that's built in the thread index mode doesn't seem to use this
facility, and so when you have a thread that includes several emails
from the same account but inconsistent names, that person is listed more
than once in the "participants" column, with the different names.

(For example I have a thread from Fabian, Fabián, and fabian.martinez
that all come from the same fabian.martinez@example.com account).
