mutt probably isn't using /etc/termcap, but terminfo instead. This is
what I would guess for wy30:

It's possible that one or more of the strings are corrupt - I corrected
several of the entries for Wyse terminals from having seen that some
typos were introduced by back/forth translation with infocmp (e.g.,
adding commas or other punctuation). I'd suggest debugging the terminal
entry using 'tack', which exercises a large portion of the terminfo
entry in individual tests. (tack is part of ncurses).
