Colouring threads and splitting the screen

[Jose Alves de Castro <jcastro@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, guys.

Using Google I came across these two screenshots of Mutt:

http://www.jhweiss.de/img/mutt_mail.png

I can see in those two screenshots at least two features I'd like to add
to my .muttrc, but don't know how.

First, I'd like to have each thread with a different colour (currently,
they're all white).

Secondly, I'd like to split the screen, so that I could see the list of
mails on top and have one of them opened beneath that list.

Can anyone help me with this?

TIA,

jac
