Just a shot in the dark, I would also test it with ncurses instead of
slang. For example, in the past I wasn’t able to get colourising to work
with xfce4-terminal and rxvt-unicode neither within Mutt (with several
NeoMutt patches applied) nor with NeoMutt itself. Some of my colour
definitions worked (5 out of 40) but they always changed from session to
session. After switching to ncurses all works as it should.
I you have the time and being interested in, have a look at [1].
I cannot say anything about OS X terminal, but I think when something
doesn’t work, it may be worth not to put all and every previous setting
in your new configuration. I would start with a small basic config and
then check several colour settings (within NeoMutt’s command line).
Hope that helps.
