How can I change the background color in the inbox?
The background color in my inbox (well, all mailboxes) is white. A yellow background would make the existing black text a lot easier to read. How can I change the background color in the inbox?

This is not my area of expertise, but since you haven't had any responses yet, I suggest you look into add-on themes and also see what Windows themes can do for you.
Thanks for your reply. However, I have Firefox the way I want it. I just need something for the inbox. I'm beginning to suspect that it doesn't exist.
If you install Theme Font & Size Changer you can change "thread pane background color"
Themes work in Thunderbird - duggabe was not refering to Firefox.
Another useful addon is theme and font changer:
However, Thunderbird allows you to modify all sorts of things.
Make hidden files and folders visible:
Help > Troubleshooting Information Click on 'show Folder' button a window opens shwoing profile folder name
Close Thunderbird now - this is important
In the profile name folder, Create a new folder called chrome - note the spelling It should be in the same place as the 'Mail' folder. see first image below.
Open Notepad
Can be located : Start > Programs > accessories
Copy everything shown between the lines below. Paste into Notepad. Save as userChrome.css - note the spelling (edit updated - this was a typo error) This should be saved in the chrome folder. see second image below.
Restart Thunderbird.
I have chosen a yellow for you
#f6f58c = a yellow....it is a hex code for a colour.
You can change it if required. Remember when updating anything in the profile folders, you must close Thunderbird first. More info on colours.

Thanks, folks! I'm going to try this.Yay!
Sorry - Definately my typo fault. Shows how easy it is to accidentally press the n and not the m. userChrome.css is the correct spelling.
Works for me. Thanks Toad-Hall A tip as I had no chrome - directory so I had to create it directly in my profile.
