Replying to my own message, it seems that I just needed to read the help
a little more carefully. Sorry for the noise.
Anyway, I put the file in
/Users/jld/Library/Application
Support/MailMate/Resources/MmMessageTextView/display.plist
And now it is in effect. I changed this:
foregroundColors = ( '#000000', '#0000FF', '#008000', '#808000' );
to this:
foregroundColors = ( '#000000', '#000000', '#000000', '#000000' );
And now quoted text gets progressively lighter gray with each quote
level. Not sure if there is a way to affect how much lighter each level
get. The first level seems to be RGB 100-100-100 or about 47% grayscale,
the second about 135-135-135 or about 60% grayscale.
If I can figure out how to make those a little darker, that would be
nice.

Hi, pretty long-time and happy MailMate user here. I'd like to change
the colors of quoted text in message bodies. There doesn't seem to be
a way to do this with the normal UI.
I copied
/Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/Resources/MmMessageTextView/display.plist
to ~/Library/Application
Support/MailMate/MmMessageTextView/display.plist and edited the copy
but this had no effect.
My "Message View" prefs are Simple theme, do not apply HTML, and
prefer plain text if that matters.
Could anyone give me a tip as to what file should be edited? Thanks
very much.
