Hello everyone, this is my first message and I am new to Mutt... installed 1.4.2.3 a few days ago... so far the learning curve seems to be pretty steep, but at last I got to the point where I am actually emailing with it. :)
I use it from console most of the time and tried a couple of color combinations, but the bright colors coupled with the traditional black background get to fatigue my eyes very quickly. My preference would be a white/light gray background and not-too- bright colors that are easy on the eyes. I do not know enough to create my own, so can someone suggest where some good code to that extent for my .muttrc can be found? Also, I am debating whether to keep nano as editor (which makes it much easier for me at this time) or force myself to revert to the editor/pager that comes with Mutt and force myself to use that instead from the very start... Advantages/disadvantages of using an external editor? Thanks, Franz
