Yes, some day :) I've tried to fiddle with batskin.xml in the past and this morning and I just seem to not be able to achieve what I want. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

I know that he and the others will do what they can to give us ease and also transparency of how to do things. It's very comforting to have you agree with me. I promise you another beer!

Looking closely, I see the same thing. But the faint blue color and (acceptably) small size caused me to overlook the different appearance. I shall have to squint to notice these. But, it's good to know it's not a bug but a deliberate design change.

Hi Mary and list, On Friday, April 29, 2005 at 16:24:09 GMT -0500 (which was 23:24 where I live) Mary Bull wrote (at least in parts) and made these valuable points on the subject of "RC1, Message list in folder view, read-unread distinction": MB>>> There is no difference in color of the small envelopes to the left of MB>>> the "Park" column. >> That's strange > I should say that I'm using the Default Theme and color scheme.

For unread mail the icons is a closed envelope, for read mail the envelope is opened and a sheet is half pulled out (That's what I see :-) - looks like printer-icon for me). OK - quite nice, but I too liked the difference in color better. It's easier to see it at a glance instead of having to _think_ about what icon there is. Maybe the unopened icon can be colored too? -- Regards Michael powered by The BAT! 3.5 Return RC1, , and MyMacros 1.11a with usual problems of Windows XP Pro 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current beta is 3.5 Return RC/1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

So--see below: MB>> The Unread messages are displayed in regular, not bold, typeface. > Please check if default colour group has bold typeface set for unread > messages Ah. I did not think to look in Default/edit. But did now. Somehow--I didn't do it so far as I know, but it happened with my installing RC1--Normal was checked to be Bold as well as Unread Bold. Since--for contrast for my old eyes--I'm using Arial Black, I thought all the message listings were in Regular, but they were, both Read and Unread, in Bold. I unchecked the Bold for Normal, and all is well. Fixed now, and many thanks.
