see the commonality of above?
after making above changes, close about:config window, close preferences
window, close thunderbird window. sing 5 verses of "happy birthday bob".
open thunderbird, open an email, should be _all_white_text_ on
_all_black_background_. press <ctrl+r>, compose window should be
_all_white_text_ on _all_black_background_.
if not, open about:config to see what settings have changed and reset
them to above. after making above changes, close about:config window,
close preferences window, select;

accept prompts to close thunderbird window. sing 5 verses of "happy
birthday bob".
open thunderbird, open an email, should be _all_white_text_ on
_all_black_background_. press <ctrl+r>, compose window should be
_all_white_text_ on _all_black_background_.
if not, you have something very, very wrong and you need to try a
different desktop environment.
George -
There's probably no way to convince you that I have done all this
correctly but after going through these settings again very carefully
[backgrounds #000000, all others #ffffff] this morning in both
Thunderbird and Seamonkey the result is still dark blue quoted link
names in Thunderbird and black on black quoted link names in Seamonkey.
I can always tap CTRL+A and read everything ...
It seems I can't have white text on black without suffering
incovenience, something that it seems [to me] should be just one item to
toggle instead of the mess it is now. I can't believe that I am the only
one who finds white on black preferable.
Thanks for the help but let's drop it here,
Bob
