Modify message list (read/unread) colors
« on: December 16, 2012, 01:37:09 pm »
Hi, this is the one feature that REALLY affects functionality/usability.

Would it be possible to change the colors (fore and/or back) in the
message folder (ie. where one's messages are listed) ?

It is very hard to see/decipher read from unread message especially
when outside (sun, etc); the contrast is too faint/subtle.  I would
have loved to see unread messages using a VERY different color from
the read messages and so it would be ideal to give the ability to tweak
these settings to the user...

BTW: LOVE your notifications and folder counts on the icons.

Keep up the great work !

Regards.

This is hard to get right for everyone, so yes, will put customization on my to-do list. Thank you.

Great - looking forward to seeing it implemented.  I've been planning
on uploading a couple of images to show how drastic things can be
(I have a screenshot of AquaMail and EE - note that I very much dislike
EE for a number of other reasons but see value in its user interface,
menu'ing, categorized settings, etc).

Again, note how easy it is to quickly view what is read and what is
unread at a glance (as noted I've had issues when outside in the
sun among other places to make that distinction in Aqua); also note
the reduced clutter, etc.

Thanks...
