I started fiddling with this, and I had black as the background in my
/etc/Muttrc file.  After I changed that to default, and fiddled with my
keyboard shortcuts,  I have a transparent aterm with mutt running inside
it, and my background image shows thru just fine!
Now I just need to find a shading color that doesn't conflict with any
of the colors I have setup for quotes and such! :)
