Steps to reproduce:

Automatisch neuste Version installieren lassen.

Automatic new Update!

Actual results:

In Dark-Modus (Beziehungsweise Designs mit Dark-Modus)
Am Anfang hatte ich schwarzen Hintergrund mit weißen Text statt weißen Hintergrund mit Schwarzen Text.
Jetzt habe ich weißen Hintergrund mit weißen Text. Ich musste auf Hell-Modus wechseln um die Mails zu lesen. Und Hell-Design ist sehr hell!

In dark mode (or rather designs with dark mode)
In the beginning I had black background with white text instead of white background with black text.
Now I have white background with white text. I had to switch to light mode to read the mails. And light design is very bright!

Expected results:

Weißen Hintergrund mit Schwarzen Text bei den Mails in Dark-Modus/Dark-Designs.

White background with black text for mails in dark mode/dark designs.

Here are 2 pictures.
1st picture is bright mode

Now I wanted to take second screenshot in dark mode. Now I have black background and white text. Still I want black text on white background.

I bet if I close Thunderbird again, wait a few hours, I will have a different result again.

Have you asked this question in the Thunderbird Support Forum ?
If yes please post a link to the question as I would have expected you to ask this in Support first.
Frequently the cause is due to using wrong settings and in all other cases it's because the sender of email inserts html css to specifiy the font colour but not the background colour so you end up with white on white or dark on dark in which case swapping to use 'View Message as' > Simple html for that email usually displays the text.
