Hiya folks, So. Clearly I have something set incorrectly so that Mutt (and/or the terminal I am using) do not understand the special characters. Can anyone point me in the right direction to find the answer as to how to fix this so that I can ditch Thunderbird and go back to Mutt?
It works for me with "TERM=gnome mutt".
Doesn't work. I probably should have mentioned that I see this problem in these terminals:
- putty on windows - xterm on linux - gnome-terminal on linux - multi-gnome-terminal on linux - linux on linux (ie logged into the console)
Doing an export TERM=vt100 before invoking mutt sometimes, but not always, can make some of these problems go away (but not this one).
This is an example of what I am seeing:
