Currently I am using the ivy league color theme from Aaron Toponce
(see link below) with a couple of modifications to make it work in my
transparent KDE Konsole.

I was looking for similar 256 color themes for mutt but there does
not appear to be any on the whole Internet.
There are some config file samples at http://wiki.mutt.org - look for a
link called
Configlist - some include coloring, and screenshots are provided, but
there are many
broken links. There used to be a lot more when I downloaded some to my
laptop a couple
of years ago when I was setting up mutt.
Are there any other themes around? Or is anyone willing to share
their colors?
Here I attach the color setting I use. To use it I source it in my
.muttrc file like:
source /path/to/ivy256
Attaching mine, I use different tones of a couple of colors and shades
of grey rather
than the entire color spectrum, so if you were looking for something
colorful, you
will be disappointed :-)
If you want to take a look at it, make sure you're running mutt on a
dark background.
