SSH with PUTTY to Cygwin display probs...

Hi,

I have recently installed Cygwin mainly to use Mutt as
a mail client.

I have set everything up and all works fine.

I want to SSH into Cygwin (localhost) with PUTTY, and use Mutt from there. 

I have installed/setup SSH and I can SSH to localhost fine.  But everything looks crap!  The bash prompt looks like this:


No passphrase required.
\[\033]0;\w\007
\033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$

and mutt is all in black and white.

I assume this has something to do with the terminal type/settings.

Any help much appreciated.


Cheers - Dan Littley
