I've had some difficulties with this backspace. :) Originally, it worked once I
set TERM to vt320. Then I wanted color, and this hosed things up again. Right
now I have "go back one line" in the page mapped to the right square bracket.
when I put 
bind pager <backspace> previous-line

in .muttrc, it doesn't seem to work as expected. 
For the record, my method of logging in is via Putty.
Backspace is set to ^? (127) in Putty. Term is xterm-color.

If I set backspace to ^H, things work in the pager, but little else.
Apparently, this is not a good idea to set backspace to ^H...nearly all
apps seem to resist this, and need special setup, most notably Emacs and vim.

Cheers, and TIA,
