Hi folks,

I am seeing a strange behaviour I would like to understand. I use puttytray to
connect to my servers which runs screen session to the other servers. In most
cases, I often have a tail -f running on maillog and www log. However, when I
refresh the screen settings back that window, I find the color has changed to
blue. You can see a screenshot here:

I have tried changing TERM settings  but this only seems to happen with the
tail of maillog. Same server running a tail -f on www log does not produce this.

Any ideas?
