Vista - getting new posts to stand out better

04-30-2009

I have my groups set in Vista settings where the old posts are grey buck
darker then default, because I still like to go to older posts... When new
messages come in the from column is nice and bold and the subject is only
slightly darker then older post... not the easiest on the eyes. I tried
someone's suggestion to have new post set to a color. The problem with that
was even when they are not new they stayed that color... Not very effective
at all..
In version 12 a new post was nice and bold... simple.

Any other settings to help out

Not at this time...all the suggestions be they rules, configuring a color for disabled items(Appearance property, Vista only), or
3D setting(XP) pretty much yield the same results.
