Here's one way of doing it, mostly lifted from the efforts of
others. You can fiddle with colors to suit yourself, of course.
## MUTT COLORS
# valid colors : white, black, green, magenta,
# blue, cyan, yellow, red,
# Each color comes in plain (red) and bright (brightred)
# color thisthing foreground background [arguments]
color normal black default
color attachment black cyan
color hdrdefault cyan white
color indicator black green
color markers red white
color index green default ~N # New
color index magenta yellow ~T # Tagged
color index black white ~D # Deleted
color index blue default ~O # Old
color index red default '~f cron'
color index red default '~f Anacron'
color index brightyellow black "~b '\ name.{0,9}\=.{2,30}\.zip'"
color index red yellow '~f root'
color quoted blue white
color quoted1 green white
color quoted2 magenta white
color quoted3 yellow white
color signature red cyan
color status yellow blue
color tilde blue white
color tree red white
color header blue white ^From:

# Errors will be printed in red:

Additionally, if you are deploying gpg, you can color the messages thus:
# GPG/PGP related color directives:
mono body bold "^gpg: Good signature"
mono body reverse "^gpg: Bad signature from.*"
color body brightblack cyan "^gpg: Signature made.*"
color body brightblack green "^gpg: Good signature from.*
"
color body brightblack yellow "^gpg: Can't check signature
.*"
color body brightblack yellow "^gpg: WARNING: .*"
color body brightwhite red "^gpg: BAD signature from.*"
