Low contrast in some emails/CSS inconsistently applied? (screenshots)

Hi :)

I just wanted to provide info about an issue I'm having using Thunderbird. It's been present in past iterations since I installed a few months ago (before the rebrand), and I thought I'd mention it.

I'm finding that in dark theme, some text is unreadable due to low contrast (dark text on dark background). I am imagining the email likely has css/html clashing with my preferences? These emails are the only thing I use outlook for these days, as they render okay in there.

I have included how the email appears in thunderbird, then outlook by way of comparison.

I hope this is helpful, I'm happy to provide any information I can. :) Thank you for keeping this email client going, I love using it. :)

Many thanks,

Adam
