I'm a bit stuck trying to figure out why colors aren't working for me on FreeBSD (where I understand that termcap is used rather than terminfo).
How are you invoking mutt? The only way I can get a mono mutt display is by invoking mutt with an empty config file (as I have a .muttrc with color statements already): touch .argaerg mutt -F .argaerg Have you tried copying the supplied sample.muttrc to $HOME/.muttrc and then running mutt? It'll at least show you colour if $TERM is xterm-256color If you installed mutt with pkg, colour will be enabled. Here's my mutt -v : Mutt 1.12.1 (2019-06-15) Copyright (C) 1996-2016 Michael R.
