I have made some modifications on the default theme of thunderbird in order to make it look nicer. Most importantly, I made changed the behavior of the tags column in order to highlight each tag cell with the color of the most important tag. I have also made some modifications to the background colors of the panels and to the fonts.
To apply this theme copy the chrome folder of this repository under your thunderbird's profile folder (e.g., ~/.thunderbird/<profile>/. or ~/.icedove/<profile>/. in Debian). Then, restart thunderbird for the new theme to take effect. Finally, change the set of columns in the message list as below:
- Thread
- Star
- Attachments
- Read
- From
- Tag
- Junk Status
- Date
Below is a screenshot of the new style:
