Well, I've had it!! If you want to communicate with your newsletter, why the black letters on the dark blue background??? Or is it just me? I know my eyes aren't perfect, but, sheesh.... Deleted - unread.

Yeah, that is definitely your email client applying a blue color. What program is that you are using?

I'm using the latest version of Agent. I've checked the colors options, but don't see a way to change it background....

Agent! Ok, we need to get you into the 21st century here Dennis. ;)

Switch over to something like Thunderbird and you will be much happier.

Wikmail is even more organizable than Thunderbird is for inboxes when you have a lot of accounts :)
