How do I make the Home button work as expected?
Supposing you are referring to Bash, I'm going to guess the expected behavior when depressing the "Home" key is for the cursor to move to the first character of the editing (not necessarily visual) line.
The simplest solution might be to become accustomed to using: <CTRL>-A: move cursor to first character <CTRL>-E: move cursor to end character
Then see section Readline Command Names of the Bash manual (man bash)
for additional default key bindings. They are similar to Emacs key bindings. Although you can also configure Bash to provide line editing similar to how vi would.
But to actually fix the issue with the Home key, given your email host name, this may be a key map issue. I think we would first need to know whether you are using a shell through an X terminal emulator, or on the virtual console.
If the former, I would look to solve the issue with 'xmodmap'. If the later, I would look to 'loadkeys'. Although there may be better or more appropriate solutions.
