Make sure your TERM variable matches whatever terminal emulation type
you have set in CRT.  I'm reading mail with sort=threads via CRT right
now, and the threading characters look perfect (they're also fine if I
run under screen).  Here's the termcap entry I use for CRT.  I tell CRT
to do "ansi" emulation, which is afwully close to SCO's console in
terms of features (i.e. it's not ANSI X3.64, but a whole hodgepodge of
stuff :).  I also use a font that has line-drawing charaters in the right
place.

# CRT term doesn't know cv or ch, does have "Set scrolling region",
# doesn't have "erase characters", has underline,
# uses ^E[m to reset colors, has printing mode,
# eats a newline if at right margin, can't do ACS chars < 32
