Eterm can do this, e.g:
<f1> is \e[11~
Ctrl+<f1> is \e[11^
Alt+<f1> is \e\e[11~
<left> is \e[D
Ctrl+<left> is \e0d
Alt+<left> is \e\e[D
(you can check Eterm_reference.html for the strings if you have Eterm).
It should be possible to bind mutt functions/macros by giving these
sequences directly (e.g. I use `macro index \e[23~ ...' because Slang
does not recognize it as <f11>).
OTOH if the terminal in question does not distinguish Ctrl/Alt+<key>
from plain <key>, it's harder to do, but doable (e.g. you can setup your
keymap to send any sequences in the console, and many xterm's can be
configured in one way or another).
