| | Where have all the toolbar icons gone? Vista Home Prem with the latest Windows Live Mail sync'ing with mail, contacts and calendar on the web site. Everything works no prob, except today all the toolbar icons have gone. Toolbar is still there, words only. I can customise it etc, but no icons. Looks kinda dull (grin). No idea what happened. Help - please? Thanks. -- Peter in New Zealand. (Email address is fake) Collector of old cameras, tropical fish fancier, good coffee nutter, and compulsive computer fiddler. |

Read messages turn a light grey so it's not too hard to distinguish them, but with watched threads (which by default use red text) the only change is the bold attribute is turned off in the From column. This makes it pretty hard to see if there are new messages in the thread. This is a real loss of functionality IMHO. |

I'd consider Thunderbird for the ability to customise the message list font except I LOVE the calendar and contacts syncing with WLM. Apart from the long delay for contacts birthdays to show up in the calendar I am really thrilled with it. At least things are moving, and development is actively going on. Uh-oh! Just noticed something else. I have several sigs and one specifically for newsgroups. Not a newsgroup post only has the default sig available, instead of being able to choose from all the sigs set up. That's only just happened, so hopefully continued dev will see this err, bug? disappear. Peter in NZ |

| | Re: Where have all the toolbar icons gone? I don't agree that "the fade is ok". On my laptop screen the faded light gray makes the Subject field of read messages too faint to read easily. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "CBoom" <someone@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:gju6uq$ca1$1@xxxxxx Quote: Quote: > >the only > it pretty hard to see if there are new messages in the thread.

| | Re: Where have all the toolbar icons gone? To remove the grey in news and pop3 accounts... Create a rule For all messages after message arrives, Highlight with Color(default is black), then apply it to current..future read messages will be black instead of grey. It does not impact the 'bold only' for unread in the From field. -- ...winston ms-mvp mail "Victek" <Victek@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:BE7A980F-90FF-45E3-9A7B-5BEDF154469A@xxxxxx Quote: Quote: Quote: >>>> Vista Home Prem with the latest Windows Live Mail sync'ing with mail, contacts and calendar on the web site.
