Because it's more an annoyance than anything else, I've never asked about it ... I've alse feared it was really elementary. :( Anyhoo, the problem is: when I am in console and ssh into my mail box, the display (in Pine, which is what my ISP has ... I'd use Mutt otherwise) is a bit funky. Not sure what words to use to describe it, but messages "overlap" so that when it -appears- I am on one message, I am really on the next, and so on. I can sort things out by first down-arrowing over everything, but that's kind of a pain ... and it still leaves a few 'ghost' lines at the top of the screen. It would seem that the # of lines on the screen is off, or the terminal type is wrong, or something along those lines. I've flailed around with switching term types, but that doesn't seem to do anything. Anyone else seen this? or more importantly, seen it and fixed it?
