Did you > build Mutt with SLang or ncurses? That might be the culpret possibly. I have tried using a number of other terminal emulators, and have encountered the same problem every time. I would be interested in trying the SLang/ncurses thing, but I'm not sure which one was used at compile time. I just installed the port using 'make install' and due to my nearly non-existant programming experience, cannot tell which one is selected by default. > ideas: Try other tty-based color programs such as lynx, slrn, elvis, > whatever.
