Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply.  I have the same problem with iTerm on OSX
connecting to the same Freebsd box.  

I narrowed down the problem with ncurses.  I had WITH_MUTT_NCURSES=yes
set in my /etc/make.conf file.  Removing the line and letting mutt
compile with the default slang library fixed the problem.
