I never experienced that. Overall xterm might behave crisper, because Terminal.app is slow -- but not only for mutt. I do however notice slowness right after starting mutt (cold cache???), but then it runs fine. > FWIW: I built using the BerkeleyDB libraries, since the other > choices refuse to work with OSX.

Both qdbm and mutt build just fine on 10.4.11. Also fink's mutt ships with qdbm. If with "gdb" you mean GNU dbm I once built mutt against gdbm from fink, again w/o without having the issues you describe. c -- Python Mutt utilities <http://www.blacktrash.org/hg/muttils/>
