Set text color when reading HTML mail?
Is there an easy/obvious way to do this? The problem is that I use a black background, and sometimes I get HTML email (which I'd ordinarily delete, but sometimes they're things like invoices that I need), and when the email doesn't set both text & background color, the text color defaults to black, making it unreadable. (But still there, if I e.g. mark it for copying.)I think this should be set somewhere in mime.css, but I don't see anything that's an obvious name - most elements are omf.something, which doesn't make much sense to me. (Haven't Opera's developers heard of comments?) Anyway, I'm pretty lost, and would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
James
I'm not sure if mime.css will help. I think the body of the message is loaded via an html object element that embeds a mime document. If that's the case, doing stuff in mime.css probably won't help for the body of the message. You could try omf|body {color: red !important} or something. But, I don't think it'd help. Even if it did, the HTML and css in the embedded document might still override things.
There might be a way to do it. Just can't think of one.

Yeah, I tried setting color in omf|body, but it doesn't seem to have any effect at all. In fact, nothing I've changed in the mime.css file seems to do anything. (I made a copy, and pointed the opera:config path to it, then changed that.)
This is not - obviously! - something I know much about, but I thought the whole point of having CSS styles is so that your local styles could override anything in the documents you look at. Works for web pages, at least when I can figure out the names of the style elements to override, so why not mail?
