really trivial, but still:
the mail client parses plaintext messages for an eventual signature.
that is apparently the string "--" followed by a newline (though it
doesn't seem to recognize *all* occurrences, but still *some*). from
this line until the end of the message, the text is displayed grey
instead of black.
nevertheless, it's a common practice (not only on mailing lists) to
forward multiple mails in one message, separated by some delimiter.
in this case, everything from the first signature until the end of
the message (including non-signature content) is displayed grey.
since parsing for eventual delimiters is hardly possible, the fix
would be to check for multiple occurrences of "--"/newline (or
whatever criteria are used to determine signatures) and if true
display the whole message in black.
Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Search your mailbox for a message with multiple signatures that
is displayed as desribed above.
Actual Results: message is displayed using grey text from the first signature on
Expected Results: whole message should be displayed using black text

Actually, the delimiter is "-- " followed by a newline (note the space).
Do these digests use multipart/digest?
