    Howdy, before I begin, here's what I'm running:

    FreeBSD 4.7
    Mutt 1.4i (2002-05-29)
    Vim 6.1.271

    Anyways, when I run vim from the command line, if I'm in insert mode and I
    hit the backspace key it acts normally.  IE: It erases the character to the
    left of the cursor.

    However, when I'm editing an email to send (as I am right now) when I hit
    the backspace key it instead acts like I hit delete. (Erasing the character
    under the cursor).

    Any ideas as to why this might be happening?  It's highly frustrating.

    Thanks in advance for your help.
