Ah, yes! I do have these set.

IMHO, libslang provides a better experience than ncurses with mutt. However, the need to have these environmental variables set may indeed be a stumbling block. Admittedly, I'm not willing to do the work now to figure out `who' is/should be setting COLORTERM/COLORFGBG in time for 4.6-RELEASE, so I guess I'll let sleeping dogs lie for now :-) Cheers, -- Jacques A.
