Well, what you do with pressing both F9 and then pressing F10, i do with
only one single press (F2). I always want to reload after i edited the 
settings so.

But besides that, i just noticed that what i described only happens when i 
am remotely logged in via telnet!! When i am locally on the PC, then it's
fine. 

But when i am telnetted to my box from work then from the commandline 
'vim .muttrc' works fine with syntax highlighting, but from mutt it doesn't. 
I just found that out.  Makes it even more obscure does it? :)))
