Out of curiosity, what happens when you resize the xterm? Does
mutt rearrange itself to take advantage of the full size, after
the xterm is resized?  If so, I'd take a look at the curses
library in use, and compare the version with the version
running on the PIII where this problem doesn't occur.

Something like this probably couldn't really be a mutt issue, since
mutt doesn't handle writing to the terminal directly (it uses a
drawing library).
