For the following, I am running rxvt with a transparent background.
$TERM is set to rxvt, which is a proper entry in both the termcap and
terminfo databases.
Problem 1: when I start mutt... the message list screen has a black
background. I don't have the slightest clue what causes this (its not
just being in the alternate screen buffer, since Vim and other ncurses
programs dont behave this way). If I set my $TERM to 'xterm', then the
background isn't set to all black when mutt starts up.
Problem 2: in the pager, there is a default binding of '<BackSpace>'
to 'previous-line'... by backspace and delete are most definatly set
up correct, and matching my terminfo entry. Nothing else has a
problem with it. But mutt seems to be assuming backspace = ^H, instead
of asking terminfo.
Problem 3: i have pgp_autosign set up, and a pgp_sign_as key id
specified, but mutt seems to choose the 'wrong' MIC algorithm. (ie, if
i pick my key from mutts menu, it will properly set the mic to
pgp-sha1... but when just using pgp_sign_as, it sets the algo to
pgp-md5). I assume this is because it doesn't even query pgp/gpg for
info on what type of key pgp_key_id is. if this is the case, the
manual should have a note under pgp_sign_as that you should also set
your mic algo. otherwise, this is unexpected behaviour.
Thanks in advance for any help!
