Hi all,

I'm trying to fix a display issue when using mutt inside a screen session.

This issue came to my attention when the following posts hit my mailbox:

10723     Mário Gamito                   [CentOS] Another question              
                                                 Wed, Dec 05, 2007  (  2.4K

The accent in Mario's name (post 10723 in my mailbox) seems to cause havok with 
the
terminal emulation in mutt. I've experimented with the different terminal 
emulations
(xterm, ansi, screen, linux, xterm-color etc) and found that:
        ansi = garbled screen.
        xterm = displays layout correctly, however highlight bars (in the index 
screen
                within mutt) only drawns a background colour when text is also 
drawn.
        xterm-color = displayis an issue is shown when using the up/down arrows 
over
                      his posts. This corrupts the layout of the screen. 
usually a blank
                      line is displayed below Mario's name.
        screen = same as xterm-color
        linux = same as xterm-color

Does anyone know how I might be able to correct this? Is this an issue with 
screen or the
termcap or maybe even mutt?
