Hi there, I have 1.3.23i running on FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE (installed from the port), and looks like I can't get color support. I had 1.2.5i on this box (colors worked just fine), also installed from the port, deinstalled it, and installed the 1.3.23i version. Same ~/.mutt/muttrc, which _is_ used (every other setting is applied) but no color. I have 1.3.22(i?) on another FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE box, and the same muttrc gives me colors. The 1.3.22 mutt is installed from the package.
Now, I've read somewhere that mutt has (had) problems with detecting color support, but mutt -v seems to indicate that this is not the case. Is this is a known problem, or is it a PEBKAC?
