When I open XTerm (Unicode) it is black on white. When I open mutt it is white on black. I have tried invoking this, *without* affecting change: xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources Only when I do this, is change affected: xrdb -load ~/.Xresources Then, XTerm (Unicode) is white on black (not that I want this effect), and mutt is black on white (which I _do_ want).
