    I view Thunderbird meswsages on a black background with white

    unless highlighted using a hand magnifier! Does anyone know how to
    change that color? I would be happy if everything was displayed in
    bold white text, the colors are without benefit "to me anyway."

Create a folder named chrome under ~/.thunderbird/<PROFILE_NAME>/; inside chrome create a text file named userContent.css and put this text in it:

@namespace url("http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";);
a {
    color: white !important;}



if you want to make links white and bold:
a {
    color: white !important;
    font-weight: bold !important;}


then restart Thunderbird for the changes to take effect.

I created:

[bobg@box10 ~]$ cat .thunderbird/chrome
#
#    /home/bobg/.thunderbird/chrome


# @namespace url("http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";);
# a {
#    color: white !important;}



# if you want to make links white and bold:
a {
    color: white !important;
    font-weight: bold !important;}

Which I believe is what you were suggesting I do? Restarted Thunderbird, even tried rebooting the computer, but still have dark blue links displayed on a black background.

I also tried adding that to seamonkey with no change.
