I wonder if the number of attachments could be shown in the index?

I don't know if that would be sufficient; a lot of work emails are loaded with stupid company logos and such.

Maybe the index could include a count of attachments only of specific types enumerated in a mutt var.  Or maybe a count of attachments not enumerated in a mutt var.

  set show_attachments=text/calendar;text/html
  set hide_attachments=image/png

%p is unused.  Let it stand for the number of parts:

  set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L %p (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s"

Just spitballin'!
