Not sure what is meant by your reply.

Hi Trey,

I think he meant that in your .muttrc, you might want to add an entry like:

color normal white default  (or whatever color combination)

similar to how you have it for header, body, index, and the other color entries.

Please also note the following in the Mutt manual, it probably does
not apply for you, but be aware of it:

http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#color  :

If your terminal supports it, the special keyword default can be used
as a transparent color. The value brightdefault is also valid. If Mutt
is linked against the S-Lang library, you also need to set the
$COLORFGBG environment variable to the default colors of your terminal
for this to work; for example (for Bourne-like shells):

set COLORFGBG="green;black"
export COLORFGBG

Kind regards,

Remco
