I can confirm at least part of what you have observed (using Debian buster). I believe the background color in Mutt is set to "black" for most things. Setting the background color to "default" makes it transparent in my case. You'll probably have to set the background color of several objects to "default" (in your muttrc). I'd suggest to start with the object called "normal". Cheers, Marcus -- Marcus C. Gottwald · <m...@cheers.de> · @mcg:cheers.de
