Bug#306846: mutt: superfluous screen clear at startup

Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.9-1
Severity: minor

When mutt starts up the first thing it does is change the background
colour to black and clears the screen.  It then sets the colours to
what I've setup in my .muttrc and clears the screen again before
displaying any actual text.  So the first clear screen is superfluous
and should be removed.

The version I just upgraded from (1.5.6-20040907+3) didn't do this.

Cheers,
Mark.
