Re: How to change the color of unread message

From Mary Beth Raven's site.

A file called "notes.css" has the info for color for your mail (and calendar and Contacts).
So, to change the color from Bold black back to red, do this:

1. Find Notes.css
Here is where notes.css is contained:
C:\Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Notes\framework\shared\eclipse\plugins\com.ibm.notes.branding_3<date>\themes

2. Make a backup of Notes.css just in case.

3. Edit Notes.css. Look for the following:
/* this sets the style for messages that have been marked as "unread" */
mailtable>row>unread {
color: black;
font-family: Tahoma, Times, Helvetica;
font-size: 8pt;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
}

4. Change the color from Black to Red. also, change font-weight from bold to normal if you want.
5. Save and close
6. Restart the client.


HTH,
Tim E. Brown
