No, you aren't missing anything. QuoteColors basically tweaks the preferences for displaying messages you received; it does *not* actually modifies the message, nor does it changes the styles for messages you send. That's why it can affect plaintext messages, for instance -- yet when you reply them, they are still plaintext. Before QuoteColors, way, way back in the old times of Mozilla Application Suite 1.0 or thereabouts -- or maybe even before that -- I found a reference to prefs.js that explained how to tweak the appearance of the message being read. I went to the trouble of doing it all by hand, once. QuoteColors made it way simpler. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
