Steps to reproduce:

Tried different themes
Tried to find a light mode

Actual results:

Whenever a different theme is tried, reverts to email dark mode. I cannot read them.

Expected results:

Mode should stay light. Or there should be somewhere to switch to a light or dark mode if you want.

Does it actually show in add-ons > themes that the dark mode theme is ENABLED?

Can you post a few screenshots?

We currently do not have an email dark mode. Even if a dark theme is selected, the email content frame is unchanged. It is not touched by themes - unless you have manually installed an add-on which acts as a theme - even though it is not a static theme but an add-on altering the UI. For example DarkReader.

Can you check which add-ons are installed?

No,. LIGHT mode is enabled. But when I try a new theme, reverts to dark emails??
BTW, I deleted all other addons.

In other words, no Dark reader. I have seen another person mentiion this, so I am not the only one.
My windows system is also LIGHT

Is message display in the message preview pane the only area of the UI affected?
