The colours are configurable - from "mm.txt" which should be in the 
root directory of your MultiMail --

"       colors Specifies the colors to use. (See README.col.)"

I have several colour sets (file extension .col) pre-canned from my
tinking around with this sucker when I was first setting it up. 

The *only* hardwired file is the configuration file: .mmailrc (mmail.rc
in DOS, OS/2 or Win32). It's used to specify the pathnames  to  Multi-
Mail's other  files,  and the command lines for external programs (the
editor and the archivers).

By default, the other files are placed in the MultiMail home directory
($HOME/mmail or $MMAIL). Directories specified in the .mmailrc are 
created automatically with the default values. You may edit from there.
