Subject: mutt spam sorting support

mutt 1.5.12 has native support for external spam scoring. I think
it would make sense to turn it on in the default Muttrc. I'm using:
set imap_headers="X-Spam-Score"
spam "X-Spam-Score:.(.*)" "%1"
And then displaying it in the index with %-3.3H:
set index_format="%4C %Z %-3.3H %[%b %d] %-15.15L (%4c) %s"
But given that the default index_format is slightly different
from mine:
# set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s"
A better choice would probably be:
set index_format="%4C %Z %-3.3H %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s"
This lets you sort on spam score (with 'o'), as well as do limits with
it ('%H' operand to 'l'), and of course, see it in the
index. Obviously the index is the most contentious choice.
