  • Turning off reverse video headers

    From cjsmall@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jun 15 10:31:03 2018
    In Mutt 1.9.4 something new is happening. When I compose a message using an external editor (vim) and then return for posting, the headers are now being displayed in reverse video. A screen shot is located here:

    I find this annoying. Is there a new setting that can be used to turn this off?

    Thanks.

    I'm using a rolling master build since 2 years and never experienced
    such thing. I suspect some mutt/ncurses/terminal collaboration problem.

    You can try to set colors for "compose header" and "compose
    security_none", e.g.

    | color compose header black default
    | color compose security_none black default
