Public bug reported:

1)The release of Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Release:        18.04

2)The version of the package
evolution:
  Installed: 3.28.5-0ubuntu0.18.04.1
  Candidate: 3.28.5-0ubuntu0.18.04.1
  Version table:
 *** 3.28.5-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 500
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/universe amd64 
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     3.28.1-2 500
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages

The problem is very similar to https://mail.gnome.org/archives
/evolution-list/2016-November/msg00063.html, which describes the problem
very well.

3)What I expect
I use the Evolution for OWA with a dark theme and "Inherit theme colors in HTML 
mode" turned OFF.  The editor works very well as described in the 
aforementioned mailing list and sends messages with the white background even 
though I am editing them with a dark background.  When I save, I expect to be 
able to reopen the email and continue editing without any changes.  I expect 
the saved copy to be exactly the same as if I was going to send it so that I 
can open it on any other machine and send it exactly as if I had sent it 
instead of saving it.

4)What happens instead
The problem comes in when I save the HTML message and then re-open it from the 
server in another editor.  This only really happens when I start editing on one 
computer and finish on another because I am missing a file to attach or 
something.  It appears as though the HTML changes to match the theme are saved 
to the server.

Thank you!
