I'm using Mutt 1.3.27 on FreeBSD 4.5-stable(installed via port with slang). Nothing wrong with the port. "Wrong" is slang. In order to display correct colors with slang you should define COLORFGBG environment variable. My .cshrc file contains the following (i'm using tcsh as a default shell): setenv COLORFGBG="lightgrey;black" Also you should use "lightgrey" instead of "white" and "brown" instead of "yellow" while defining COLORFGBG. Read the /usr/local/share/doc/mutt/manual.txt and your mutt will be white and fluffy. -- Regards, Artem Okounev.
