mutt

Is there any way to bold, ~~strike~~, or underline text in mutt?

For instance, I currently have a couple of lines in my muttrc to make URLs and email addresses blue text on white background:

color body blue white regex

but I'd rather have that be blueunderline on white background. Likewise, I'd like to be able to bold unread mails in the index.

(dunno if it's relevant, but I'm using Ubuntu's mutt-patched, which is compiled with ncurses.)
