Especially, if mutt is linked against ncurses (at least in my experience),
it depends heaviliy on how your TERM variable is set and/or on the installed
terminfo informations about the terminal you're using. In your case I'd
check TERM on both machines - might be different on the Solaris box for some
odd reasons. I myself use the XFree colour xterm as well as rxvt under
Solaris, both compiled to set TERM to xterm-color. Works fine for me.

Cheerio,
