Chip,
I installed mutt 1.5.20 from sunfreeware and found that we
where missing several required packages, including slang.
I installed and mutt seems to open my outbox ok, That is
the index displays correctly with header and footer inverse
and the index bar being visible.
Typically the outbox d

I finally got a download of a newer mutt version from sunfreeware
and will install it on the Solaris x86 platform.
Assuming that its also built with slang - do you know what

I notice the following:
- TERM is screen-bce;
- VIM works fine, handles colors;
- Mutt built with S-Lang does not start unless I set TERM to xterm or
xterm-color; Mutt complains that "Key sequence is too long",

May I suggest that trimming some of the quoted material in these
messages? It'd make it easier to read the thread, and maybe help out.

This is telling...
#!/bin/sh
for color in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 0
do
echo "`tput setaf ${color}``date`"
done
output is as expected for the first 8 colors, that is
Black, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Magenta, Cyan, White (on white...)

Chip,
This works a little better
# echo "`tput setaf 1`hello`tput me`"
tput: unknown terminfo capability 'me'
hello
Where we are in red from hello onwards.
So there are some colors available.

Chip - B/W only, plus the errors. I'm guessing that the
errors tell us where the root of the problem is.
Ok, I'm guessing that the errors will tells someone who

Will,
Here is a crazy test. from the system I'd ssh'd into, I ssh'd
to a linux box where, the # ls command there has an option to
display different types of files in different colors. That worked
perfectly.
Term there was xterm and there was also the addtional env var
of COLORTERM set to 1.

Will,
I'd tried term vt100 and dtterm, setting both xterm and xterm-color
env vars I now get a black block cursor in the last column of the
index as I move up and down the message index.
looking more and more like a termcap issue... I'll see if there are
other vt100 or dtterm color settings as w

Chip,
No, mutt is not producing any errors, its just failing, not only
to set colors but even to highlight (or is it simply reverse)
the black and white header and footer or provide inverse for the
message I'm currently pointing to in the index.
With mutt not complaining I'm guessing it is a ter

Hate ask, but I think I've tried the obvious...
Moving from a Solaris 9/sparc box with mutt Mutt 1.4.1i (2003-03-19)
to Solaris 10x86 with Mutt 1.5.17 (2007-11-01) and I'm finding that
my colors and highlighting don't work at all.
Checked terminal type, the same, didn't make any config changes,
