Description (Last modified by brendan)

I have an xterm under Linux and I connect by ssh to a Mac OS X machine (I couldn't try yet directly on the Mac OS X machine). When I enlarge the terminal while the editor is running (when composing a message), the text is not correctly displayed when returning to Mutt and doing <refresh>. Resizing the terminal here solves the problem.

How-To-Repeat:

  1. Type "mutt -F muttrc foo", where muttrc contains: 
    color normal     brightwhite    black
  2. Fill the headers. Then the editor is started in the terminal.
  3. Compose a message.
  4. Enlarge the terminal.
  5. Quit the editor. Now, the "-- Mutt: Compose" line isn't displayed at the right place.
  6. Type Ctrl-L (refresh). Result: the top of the message disappears.
