Comment 10 for bug 219460

This bug has nothing to do with the bug that was in the gnome-color-chooser! It can also be replicated by editing the gtk rc file directly. The OP bug still exists, and is actually worse in the version of evolution that comes with Karmic 9.10. The OP described the bug perfectly. In Evolution Preferences the "Mail Preferences" tab is using the wrong font colour! It is using the gnome-panel font colour instead of the correct application font colour. It should not be using the gnome-panel font colour. It should be using the same application font colour as all of the other Preferences tabs are correctly using.

This bug, it's a spreading virus... It's worse in the version of evolution that comes with Karmic, because for example, when a message has an attachment the "Save As" button is now also using the wrong font colour.
