This is overridden by the indicator color when a message is selected, though.
Basically, what I want to be able to do is:

color index brightgreen blue
color indicator brightgreen blue
color index red black "!~P !~p"
color indicator red blue "!~P !~p"

That last line doesn't work because "color indicator" doesn't accept
patterns, though.  Is there any other way to accomplish this beyond
trying to rewrite the "!~P !~p" pattern as a godawful regex?  (Part
of my hesitation to go that route is that my $alternates is rather
complex, as I currently have a few dozen addresses through which I
receive email.)
