Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021202

Imap folders (not end-point mail boxes) are gray colored in the left pane listing.

When you click/select/focus on such an item, the space turns dark blue and the
gray text is completely unreadable.  (I do not have any vision problems or
limitation and do color work as part of my profession.)

By contrast, mail boxes are black. If you select an end-point mail box, the text
turns white on the dark blue background and is easy to read.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on a folder (not a box that contains messages)
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
I get a blue rectangle of the focused area.  The previously gray text is
virtually  invisible.

Expected Results:  
The text should have been readable. Maybe white text.  Maybe black text on a
lighter blue rectangle.  I'm not particular.

The work around is to click a different folder or mail box so that you can read
the one you were on so that you know what it says and you can decide if you
really wanted to go there in the first place.
