I can confirm at least part of what you have observed (using
Debian buster). I believe the background color in Mutt is
set to "black" for most things. Setting the background color
to "default" makes it transparent in my case.
You'll probably have to set the background color of several
objects to "default" (in your muttrc). I'd suggest to start
with the object called "normal".
Cheers, Marcus
