I installed ncurses 5.2 in a separate path /usr/opt/ncurses-5.2. Then I built mutt 1.2.5.1: ./configure --prefix=/usr/opt/mutt-1.2.5.1 \ --includedir=/usr/opt/ncurses-5.2/include \ --libdir=/usr/opt/ncurses-5.2/lib --with-curses=/usr/opt/ncurses-5.2 It requires xterm-16color or similar. But still it doesn't recognize default as background color. -Hanspeter
