term screen colors messed up in mutt

[Namor]

I have 2 different issues with Mutt.

First, I start mutt from my desktop with thie:
[code]{aterm -tr -sh 50 -rv -geometry 80x45 -trsb -fade 50 -title Terminal -e mutt}[\code]
The problem is, the transparency goes away. So far Mutt is the only aplication with the problem that I noticed.

The other problem happens when I log into mutt after sshing in to my box from my windows machine. The colors in mutt are all messed up. The biggest issue is, my black background becomes blue, and messages are very difficult to read. Does anyone have any ideas?

try with the following alias in your ~/.profile

alias mutt = 'env COLORFGBG="default;default" mutt '

at least that has worked for me.
