.. always thought it would be nice if the mutt website had a collection
of coloring themes same as vim, eg. .. just so new users could get
started with minimal headaches .. and come back to it after the dust
settles.
I downloaded a few useful samples from some place or other but they are
not very sophisticated and I've never really had time to tweak further.
Thanks,
