Yes, I have done that now, hence the recent questions about
differences between 1.5.24 and 1.6.1.  My self built 1.6.1 doesn't
exhibit the (reverse video) problem.

:-)

On my desktop machine I *don't* often exit from mutt as it tends to
have a  dedicated terminal window.  However I ssh into my dekstop
machine from all sorts of remote locations using various different
means and then multiple terminals with one dedicated to mutt aren't
really possible.
