The TERM is definitely the issue. That setting controls how mutt (or,
more accurately, ncurses) knows what codes to use to change the colors
and otherwise draw things on your terminal (such as the status bar).
You don't need to install X11 on your FreeBSD machine; all you really
need are the xterm-color termcap files installed into the right
places. (Installing X11 and xterm may be the simplest/easiest way to
do that; installing new termcap files by themselves can be done, but
it isn't something even many sysadmins know much about and can be a
little confusing.)
