Define and Save Custom Text Color

The text color selection window offers a section for "custom colors". I've been able to save custom colors (well, I tried one custome color so far), but they aren't retained from one Thunderbird session to the next.

Obviously I'm doing it wrong. What's the right way?

No you are not doing anything wrong.

The text color selection window you can see in Thunderbird is actually the Windows OS text color selection window. If you were to open 'Paint' and click on 'Edit colours' you would see the same window. You can select any number of 'custom colours' and they are ok for that session, but you exit (even if you exit in Paint program) none of the custom colours are retained. This is not a thunderbird design, it is Microsoft. Windows colour selection window does not offer that option to save custom colours between sessions. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-pictures/is-there-a-way-to-save-the-custom-color-created-in/868cb90c-052b-4640-a22c-bacdee6b2d88

Thanks, Toad-Hall. Disappointing, but I understand.
