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.*"
