(defcustom mew-thread-indent-strings [" +" " +" " |" "  "]
  "*Vector of strings to be used for indentation of thread.

This consists of four members; 1st member for prefixing to a child
message that is not the last one, 2nd member is for prefixing to the 
last child, 3rd and 4th members are for prefixing to grand-child thread trees, 
4th member is for the child tree of the last child message.

Example1: [\" +\" \" +\" \" |\" \"  \"] makes thread view below.

    Message 1
     +Message 2
     | +Message 3
     +Message 4
       +Message 5

Example2: [\"  \" \"  \" \"  \" \"  \"] makes thread view below.

    Message 1
      Message 2
        Message 3
