Indeed, it does! Thank you very much for informing me this. I was mimicking .claws-mail and using gtkrc-2.0, but your e-mail has not clarified what I was doing wrong!
Perhaps this might be a good thing to clarify in the README/FAQ?
Many thanks again for your help!!
PS: Unrelated, is there a way to only have unread messages displayed in a given folder. (Some sort of toggle with display all/unread, something like that).
Best wishes again!
