-----VM 5.31 (beta): INBOX   1441 (of 1441)   IHLPZ 1:03pm  Mail   {read}----All

and it's been that way for two years...

VM perhaps could compute how many leading blanks it needs by just
checking
(length (int-to-string (vm-whatever-vm-last-message-number-is-called)))
[or maybe use format [...], instead of int-to-string... as perhaps
folks like having those message numbers in hex or octal...!]
