  The colors (sorry colours) are setup in your .muttrc file.  The
Manual covers it very well.  Here is an example from my .muttrc


   color attachment  green  black  # ..
   color tree        red    black  # index
   color header   brightyellow black   "^Cc:"
   color header   brightyellow black   "^Date:"# pager header
   color header            color4          color6 "^Subject:"
   color indicator   white  blue   # index
   color normal      white  black  # pager body
   color quoted      brightyellow  black  # pager body
   color quoted1     brightcyan black
   color quoted2     brightgreen black
   color signature   red    black  # pager body
   color status      white  blue   # index status bar default: black white
   color index red default "~z>10k"
