I'm currently using debian, so I don't know about other distros.
What I've found is that with debian,  there is mutt (linked with slang),
and mutt.curses (linked with ncurses).  As I use kbd shortcuts anyway,
I simply set up a shortcut to mutt.curses and it took care of the
problems that I was having with the color.  And setting up an alias
named mutt to point to /usr/bin/mutt.curses isn't to hard either.  8o)
