@emph{except} when the e-mail was sent by the user (i.e., you) - in that case

it shows @t{To:} (prefixed by @t{To}, as in the example above). To determine

whether a message was sent by you, @t{mu4e} uses the variable

@code{mu4e-user-mail-address-regexp}, which should be a regular expression

matching all the e-mail addresses that you use.

a=has-attachment, x=encrypted, s=signed, u=unread.

@item The From/To field shows the sender of the message unless the sender

matches the regular expression in @t{mu4e-user-mail-address-regexp}, in

which the header will show @t{To} followed by the recipient.
