i really dislike the lightslategray background color and italicized text for unread mail. black text on a dark gray background is not a great color scheme.

i've customized mine to use lightyellow and no italics.

How did you change the to light yellow and remove the italics? I'd like to do that also.
Thanks..

change:

if (b_use_essential_highlights) {
/* UNREAD */ css += "table.cf tr.zE, table.tlc tr.ur { color: black !important; background-color : lightslategray !important; font-style: italic !important;} "
/* HOVER */ css += "table.cf tr.zE:hover, table.tlc tr.ur:hover, table.cf tr.yO:hover, table.tlc tr.rr:hover { color : #000000 !important; background-color: lightgray !important;} ";
/* SELECTED */ css += "table.cf tr.x7 { color: black !important; font-style: oblique !important; background-color : gray !important; } "
}

to:

if (b_use_essential_highlights) {
/* UNREAD */ css += "table.cf tr.zE, table.tlc tr.ur { color: black !important; background-color : #ffff99 !important; font-style: !important;} "
/* HOVER */ css += "table.cf tr.zE:hover, table.tlc tr.ur:hover, table.cf tr.yO:hover, table.tlc tr.rr:hover { color : #000000 !important; background-color: ffff33 !important;} ";
/* SELECTED */ css += "table.cf tr.x7 { color: black !important; font-style: oblique !important; background-color : gray !important; } "
}
