Set "default" as the background color. This works for me in xfce4-terminal, preserving terminal transparency. For example, in your ~/.muttrc. color normal brightwhite default color index brightwhite default (I don't know whether the second line is needed, or whether additional color declarations are needed. My ~/.muttrc on Xubuntu already came with nice custom color declarations and I've since added lots of others, so I've lost track). m. -- Marianne Promberger Graduate student in Psychology http://www.psych.upenn.edu/~mpromber
