My email lists used to have a background color on all unread emails in the list. Background for read emails was white. The color disappeared and now all emails in the list have a white background. I can't find any way to get the colored background back. I tried OPTIONS, Fonts and Colors, Colors without success.

I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium Service pack 1 and Firefox 47.0.1
