I am using mutt colorfully on Solaris 8. I was using dtterm but have now
switched to xterm (XFree86 4.0.3(154)). I just compiled it and made
sure to use the terminfo that came with it. I also complied mutt with
the ncurses (5.2) and again made sure to use the terminfo that was
provided with xterm. You coudl also try mutt with slang - again this
has worked for me.
I have also tried rxvt but I cannot get the cursor to blink - this I
find annoying...
