Hi, I'm not subscribed or anything but I'd like to ask this about mutt:

I recently built mutt for solaris 8 (I'm a user not root), and with the normal
curses, it refused to display any color.  I attempted to build ncurses but
failed, so I built slang (that an extensible programming language drop in
turns out to be used for its terminal emulation in mutt and aalib must depress
the original authors).  Now I recompiled mutt with slang support, and the
color works fairly well.  However, I'm using an xterm (like) display [actually
aterm] and every bright color is bold, which is annoying.  That wouldn't be a
problem except that every time I quit mutt, the last messages (14 messages
saved, 0 deleted  or mailbox unchanged, whatever) is printed in bold of the
default fg color.  I can only reset this with a ls --color, not a reset.
What can I change in Muttrc to fix this.  I've tried making mono bold be
something specific, and I've played with all of the color commands.
additionally, Muttrc is odd because it doesn't like the `default' color,
claiming that it is not a valid color.  This is mutt-1.2.5i

thanks.
