Color for Thunderbird accounts

[Grisu70]

I'd like to have the possibility to change color to each account label and icon.

Account colours

Please implement something that you broke in Thunderbird 118.

Several people tried to create plugins to change the acount colours that were working just fine and you keep breaking them. Example : https://github.com/gazhay/accountcolors

Can you please implement something like that deafult in thunderbird? I have 6 accounts and I don't know where the emails come from because you keep breaking something as simple as this.

Hello Everyone,

I've updated my fork of accountcolors plugin to support Thunderbird 128 (Nebula). It keeps compatible with Thunderbird 115 and 102 (My previous comment for 115 support did not get posted after edit).

You can download it at here. Future updates will be published at https://github.com/Vigilans/accountcolors/releases.

Issues can be posted at https://github.com/Vigilans/accountcolors/issues.
