I am expericencing the exact same problem.

~>: pacman -Qi python2
Name           : python2
Version        : 2.7.8-1
Description    : A high-level scripting language
Architecture   : x86_64
[…]
Build Date     : Tue 01 Jul 2014 17:42:53 UTC
[…]

This happens both in uxterm as in urxvt, my WM is the 'awesome' WM where windows may lack some kind of title bar or something that may be causing this problem.

If the terminal emulator is critical, I am attempting to run it behind tmux(1). I have not tested other terminals.

Update. Removing "python-dialog" from Debian and installing "python2-pythondialog" from pip(1) gives a new error:

I was unable to get the curses interface running at all.

I got another question regarding curses, so I looked at it. Once I got around some of the most problematic problems that require a newer version of pythondialog, I see that it's in an unfinished state and barely works at all. I will probably scrap it, and instead add SMTP/IMAP interface so that you can integrate it with a terminal email client like mutt. That will give you a better user experience, more flexibility and is a better use of my time.

I forgot, during the mailchuck updates, I added a cli for the API, you can use that instead, at least that works fine:

python src/bitmessagecli.py

Don't forget to turn on API access and daemon mode.
