printenv shows no such environment variable;
set shows no such variable;
the only occurrences found by `grep -i color ~/.muttrc`
are the ones specifying where to use color for hiliting:

	# COLORS
	color  hdrdefault      brightgreen     black
	color  header          brightyellow    black   "^from:"
	mono   header          bold                    "^from:"
	color  header          brightyellow    black   "^subject:"
	color  header          brightcyan      black  "^to:"
	color  header          brightcyan      black  "^date:"
	color  header          brightcyan      black  "^x-mailer:"
	color  quoted          white           black
	color  signature       brightgreen     black
	color  indicator       brightblue      brightgreen
	color  error           brightred       black
	color  status          brightgreen     brightblue
	color  tree            brightmagenta   black
	color  tilde           brightmagenta   black
	color  body            brightyellow    black (((ht|f)tps?)|mailto):(//)?[^\ "\t]*|www\.[-a-z0-9.]+)[^\ .,;\t>">]
	color  body            brightwhite     black "[-a-z_0-9.]+@[-a-z_0-9.]+"
	color  body            brightyellow    black   "^Good signature"
	color  body            brightwhite     red     "^Bad signature from.*"
