A small nit perhaps but one which only needs the smallest of tweezers to put
right. =)

I'd be interested to hear the argument for centered as I really can't think
of any reason for it not to be left aligned.

If, say, you are scanning down a long list for a particular dated email it's
a lot easier to do if everything is lined up.

Best regards,
Daniel

He is right, it is centered, however, I don't think it's messy at all - I
think he is overstating it to make his point.  I seem to remember a thread
about this before, and someone had a reason why it should just stay as is.
 It's *such* a small nit to pick....

If you want to hack it yourself, Daniel, here is the patch (line numbers
may be slightly off due to message flags plugin):
