THUNDERBIRD : hello, following the last update of July 2024 of thunderbird, I have a lot of trouble seeing what the current message is, the highlighting is too discreet, is it possible to color the label of the message in permanence?cartouche colorée

more precisely: if I click on the header the message is visibly colored, but as soon as I click in the content of the message the color disappears, and I no longer know what message I am displaying.

there is just a small mark barely visible (see the red arrows in the image)
Can you leave the entire cartridge colored ?
