[sylpheed:30035] perhaps a tip for date formatting

Hello,

I was trying to add a tabulation character in order to the date to be
aligned, to avoid things like:

	Fri, 2006-Sep-15  12:30
	Mon,  2006-Sep-18  12:30

And doing some guesses I got it the way I wanted:

	Fri  2006-Sep-15  12:30
	Mon  2006-Sep-18  12:30

My date format is now:

	%a%t%Y-%b-%d%t%H:%M

The magic was made with "%t", which I believe stands for TAB.  This could be
useful for others, and perhaps worth adding to the format help/try box, under
Configuration > Common Preferences > Display > General: Date format

Regards.
