Hi Christoph,

first of all thank you for your post. I've no idea of why it's happening
and can only give you these additional information:

These are some relevant lines from my 'env'
...
TERM=linux
LC_ALL=C

LS_COLORS=no=00:fi=00:di=01;32:ln=01;36:pi=40;33:so=01;35:bd=40;33;01: \
cd=40;33;01:ex=01;33:*~=05;31:*.mtxt=05;31:*.ndx=05;31:*.cmd=00;33: \
*.exe=00;33:*.com=00;33:*.btm=00;33:*.bat=00;33:*.c=00;35:*.h=00;36: \
*.pl=00;35:*.pm=00;35:*.cgi=00;35:*.java=00;35:*.html=00;35:*.tar=00; \
31:*.tgz=00;31:*.arj=00;31:*.taz=00;31:*.lzh=00;31:*.zip=00;31:*.z=00; \
31:*.Z=00;31:*.gz=00;31:*.jpg=01;34:*.jpeg=01;34:*.avi=01;34:*.JPG=01;\
34:*.gif=01;34:*.GIF=01;34:*.mpg=01;34:*.mpe=01;34:*.ps=01;34:*.bmp=01;\
34:*.BMP=01;34:*.xbm=01;34:*.ppm=01;34:*.xpm=01;34:*.tif=01;34:\
*.png=01;34:

LANG=C 
LANGUAGE=C
...

And these are my locales:

LANG=C
LANGUAGE=C
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_PAPER="C"
LC_NAME="C"
LC_ADDRESS="C"
LC_TELEPHONE="C"
LC_MEASUREMENT="C"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="C"
LC_ALL=C

As I said, this behaviour 
- started when I changed to kernel 2.6.17-2-686
- does not occur when I use mutt in an xterm or with older kernels

and may now add that it
- does _not_ occur only when assigning 'red white' or 'blue white' to
  _color indicator_
- (does not occur with slrn) 

Hope this helps, but please ask whatever new info you may need.
Best regards,
        Ennio.
