When I use mutt on my Potato system without any color settings (that is, no ~/.muttrc), the default colors are just about right. The documentation on how to change the colors is adequate. When I run mutt on my shell account at my ISP, there are no colors by default (that is, with no ~/.muttrc). If I add some colors to my ~/.muttrc, the colors do display properly, so it's not just a matter of my terminal settings not supporting color.
Where are these default colors defined in the Potato mutt package? I looked for some default muttrc file on my system, but couldn't find one. Why might the mutt installed at my ISP not use any colors by default, while my local one does? Is there a setting to "turn on color" without actually specifying overrides of the defaults? -- Steven E. Harris :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG :: 0x70248E67
