I've never tried it, but this is what I would do:

Step 1: Make sure the $TERM variable points to a termcap description 
that describes the terminal as capable of that many colors.

Step 2: Get a version of ncurses/slang that supports that many colors.

Step 3: Recompile mutt.

I think it's that second step that's the hard one, but I'm not sure.
