A counter example:

try and let me know

I am not using a mutt colorscheme but a mintty one which mutt fails to
render. I will, however, try the change but a quote from the page

"The solution is to replace a lot of the very specific color
specifications of the colorscheme by the value default. "

This proves the point that mutt is unable to use 256-color specifications.

Thanks,
Ismail

ncurse can handle 256 color.
I doubt that mutt is different from other programs.


which TERM variable are you using ?

 $ TERM="xterm"
 $ tput colors
8

$ TERM="xterm-256color"
$ tput colors
256
