Description Trey 2005-01-17 16:53:11 UTC 
Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what 
you are doing.
Description of Problem:  It would be great to set coloring to heirarchies 
of replies rather that just have all quoted text as one color as it is 
now.  For example, I can have 3rd level quoting as green, second level 
quoting as blue, etc. to make reading of replies easier within the 
context of an e-mail body.


Steps to reproduce the problem:

in order to destroy the UI component (as discussed with jpr and dobey), changing 
component to mailer.
could also be gtkhtml perhaps, don't know. please change again if necessary. :-)

Comment 6 Sverre Johansen 2008-03-10 11:29:31 UTC 
The Apple mailer has this, and it's a really handy feature.

Would it be possible to implement this as a Plug-in? Also, does gtkhtml handle all mail in Evolution, also the text/plain ones ?
Comment 7 Vitaly Bordug 2008-03-10 16:01:36 UTC 
this request is around for more than 2 years. I used to request this but gave up, and now using another MUA, that does coloring, and alot more.
Comment 8 André Klapper 2012-03-30 18:31:02 UTC 
Would be in the EMFormatQuote class according to mbarnes

Comment 10 André Klapper 2021-05-19 11:12:32 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. 
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new enhancement request ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
