I now recompiled 1.7.1 under ubuntu-16.04 und get the same problem as with 1.8.0. So mutt seems not to be the culprit. As there are a lot of differences between ncurses.h in the two systems, I suspect a problem in the ncurses lib (compiled with 6.0). Could you compile mutt against that version? Kind regards, ulrich
