Okay, well I'm not sure what to do then. This is on NetBSD 2.0 with
ncurses 5.2. I have the color of the indicator set to black - cyan.
It works just fine except for one case: on new mails, where I have
them set to brightcyan - default. On those, the indicator is still
cyan, but the text is almost unreadable, with almost no contrast to
the cyan. No even sure what color it is. With the same version of
ncurses in mutt 1.4.x, the text on the cyan indicator was always
black. Actually, I just realized that it's also doing this with
flagged messages, which are green.
