Steps to reproduce:

I'm running 78.0b1 on macOS Catalina and trying to read some e-mails submitted by redmine bugtracker

Actual results:

Background and foreground colors of e-mail body have almost 0 contrast what makes it impossible to read. Changing theme to light doesn't help since message pane background stays dark.

Expected results:

It should change font color to white while in dark theme and change background color to white on light theme

Component: Untriaged → Theme

This is because the sender has only set the text colour and not the background colour: <body style="font-family:Verdana, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:1.4em;color:#222">. They thought everybody uses a white background.

I'll dupe this bug to bug 1639249. But the not changing background with the light theme would be bug 1529323.
