I don't know if it helps or applies to you, but I was unable to get the colors to work, but the devil is in the details.
I was running on Solaris 10/x86 and installed mutt from the sunfreeware pre-built. No luck with colors under 1.5.17 but no problems at all with 1.5.20 with a lot of the issues being the load library dependencies.
