Hello Everyone, 

I am posting the following article because it may be useful to those of us
who have some vision and find it necessary to go server-side, from
time-to-time, in order to configure Outlook.com for use with our various
mail clients.

Outlook.com has a dark mode. Here's how to turn it on
Microsoft's webmail service lets you paint it black.

Everybody's doing it. From YouTube, Twitter and Reddit to MacOS Mojave,
websites and entire operating systems are getting in the dark-mode game. We
all stare at screens for large portions of our days and nights, and
transforming bright, white backgrounds to black can ease the strain on our
eyes. Plus, it just looks cool. 
The latest player in the dark-mode game is Microsoft's Outlook.com. Now, you
can fire off evening emails without needing to stare at a bright, white
inbox.
Outlook.com's dark mode
You will first need to toggle on the beta version of Outlook.com before
turning on dark mode. Here's how:
.       Click the Try the beta toggle switch in the top right.
.       Click the gear icon in the top right to open the Quick settings
panel.
.       Click the toggle switch for Dark mode.
I tested dark mode across multiple browsers and platforms and can happily
report it works on both Edge and Chrome on a PC and both Safari and Chrome
on a Mac. Dark mode switches your theme, however, to Outlook.com's default
blue theme.
Turn on the lights
Microsoft added a useful tool that lets you toggle off dark mode for an
individual email message so you can see it in its original formatting.
Whether you are viewing a message in the Reading pane or opening a message
in a separate window, you can click the little sun icon next to the reply
button to "turn on the lights." You can then hit the button again (now a
moon icon) to turn off the lights. Clever. And useful if you came across an
email that doesn't look right in dark mode.
