I have a dlink NAS which has mutt installed on it. It works in
command line mode, e.g.:-
mutt -s Subject john.sm...@somewhere.com <message.txt
but it would be useful if I could run it interactively. At present it
fails as follows:-
~ $ mutt
Error opening terminal: xterm.
~ $
As I understand it this is because there's no termcap/terminfo on the
dlink NAS. However I'm running via ssh so the terminal *is* actually
an xterm and understands all the appropriate bits and pieces.
Is there any way I can tell the remote mutt that it has a proper
terminal to run in?
...oh, and here is the result of 'mutt -v':-
