WebMail Improvements, Coming Soon! - Page 3

HA ! an answer !

Seems that you MUST uncheck "Compose Messages In A New Window" !!

Don't know what that has to do with anything, because I am reading email NOT composing messages.

The other option defaults are "steel grey" and "steel gray" with text size set to "DEFAULT" NOT "small", "medium", or "large".

But it WORKS. Now I get a display of the new squirrelmail as it shows in the screen capture...

Thanks!

Yay! Glad you have now joined the rest of us in viewing Squirrelmail without going nuts!

I figured it was the settings since I had to change mine, too.

My guy still can't see the text in the buttons.

I just submitted a Support Request on this, but... here's one more to add to the "Improvements" annoyance list:

Quote:

With the upgrade to the new version of SquirrelMail, the mandatory selection of "View Unsafe Images" and then "Always trust images from this sender" leads to a screen where the only action is to take you back to the *message list*.

Please modify this to take the user back to the actual message where the "view unsafe images" action was just performed. The additional steps, including the network download, browser refresh, etc., are quite unnecessary.

Is there any way to make non-'steelgrey' custom stylesheet choices stick? No matter what I choose and save, it always gets reset back to steelgrey. For the text size option you mention, none of them make any difference in the actual displayed font size in the browser.

Also, any way to change link colors? Medium grey on light grey in the Inbox is painful. Medium grey on dark grey in the Options menu is impossible.

We may be adding a new theme in the near future to provide an alternative to gray on gray. There is no ETA on this yet.

How about letting us customize the colors ourselves? That option was briefly available after the changeover. Not sure why it was removed. At a minimum make "Large" font size actually mean something. If it were larger I could deal with it. And no, asking me to resize my browser font for this one page is NOT an acceptable solution.

Epic fail.

functionality is more important than appearance, I'm ok with it. Work out the kinks first, then change the themes.
