    2024-01-12 - Too bad this "idea" was submitted almost 9 years ago,... This suggestion is "unalive & buried",... which is why I wanted to introduce a new & more concise idea, which is much more focused & doable than this one, which needs a lot of changes. My request could be implemented in 1 day by someone who knows what they are doing,...

    The "Mozilla Thunderbird" email-client provides this feature, where the user can program the [email's displayed background color], to allow the user for a more pleasant experience.

    Feature: [ Display Background Color For eMail Body Should Be User Programmable ] - Submitted: 2024-01-11

    Not everyone can handle a “Forced White Background” (FWB) color on online pages all day long. There are 16.7 million 24-bit colors available. It is time we use a computer for its real purpose, rather than to allow for our laziness & complacency to take over, & allow the computer to be able to tailor 100% of the viewing environment, rather than it being dictated by 1, 2 or more color schemes, all of which only provide you w/ a FWB.

    Accessibility: Allow For A Background Color To Reduce Eye Disabilities, Sensitivities, Strain, & Fatigue

    Please, even on “Dark Themes” allow for the email’s displayed background color (that is now a "Forced White"), to be obtained from the "user's programmed page background color". Allow for the user to be able to specify this color at least in hex (i.e, #cccccc), or instead to be obtained from the user's browser & system colors, in order to allow for eye disabilities & sensitivities, reduce eye strain, eye fatigue & computer vision syndrome, which are very real conditions. In addition, there are an incredible amount of colors available to the computer for use on every button, icon & background, & thus using "only white" is only a sign of "lack of creativity", “laziness” & "poor design choices" – in my opinion.
