The mutt mailer displays by default two one cell-high bands at the top and bottom of the screen, something that looks a bit likes so:

I have failed to reproduce under an xterm without screen, and so I assume that the issue is related to GNU/screen. Since it does not happen with comparable programs such as slrn, or Vim, I should probably take this to the mutt list, but thought maybe someone here may have found an explanation for this.
