Thunderbird 68 Remove Alternativing Odd Even Colors
I have a custom background color and after updating to Thunderbird 68 the odd line backgrounds became white and so it became stripped... very annoying. It took me a while to figure out how to fix this to a solid background. Here is my solution:
In Thunderbird:
Help > Troubleshooting Information click on 'Open folder' button
a new window opens showing the contents of your Profile folder.
Close Thunderbird now - this is important.
Create new folder and call it chrome note the spelling - use a lower case 'c' It should be in the same place as the 'Mail' folder.
open Notepad Copy and paste the below code. Tweak to suit your needs. Save document.
<< start below >>
/* Global UI font */
- { font-size: 9pt !important;
font-family: Verdana !important;
}
- folderTree {background-color: #f0fdfa !important;}
- threadTree {background-color: #f0fdfa !important;}
- threadTree treechildren::-moz-tree-row(odd) {
background-color: #f0fdfa !important;}
- threadTree treechildren::-moz-tree-row(selected, focus) {
background-color: Highlight !important;
}
- folderTree treechildren::-moz-tree-row(odd) {
background-color: #f0fdfa !important;
color: #000 !important;}
- folderTree treechildren::-moz-tree-row(selected, focus) {
background-color: Highlight !important;
}
<< end above >>

Do you have the RemiderFox add-on? It causes stripes in the Threads Pane on TB 68.

You are correct. It's ReminderFox causing the problem. There are also other serious issues with ReminderFox and the FireFox 68 update so I went back to a FireFox 60.x version and everything is as it should be. Thank you for the information!

The ReminderFox author says that it's not compatible with TB 68. mailmindr is a similar add-on that is compatible with 68.
