It's so annoying that I'm even contemplating > going back to 3.9.5 with the patch installed... Hmm, that sounds familiar - only I'm not running mutt in screen, but in gnome-terminal. It especially happens when viewing a lot of messages, but I've never been able to pinpoint a specific set of commands that reproduce the problem. The weird thing is, I also couldn't reproduce the problem in an xterm. See http://www.win.tue.nl/~stijn/zvt-bug/ for a bug description. I originally thought that zvt (the terminal widget for gnome) was the culprit, but the author couldn't find anything to that effect. I'm suspecting the FreeBSD ncurses now...
