[all following is using firefox browser]

make note of 1st paragraph then press <ctrl+f>, enter;

    Find:  _color

to start from "Browser", pressing <F3> to advance to each of settings;

   browser.active_color
   browser.anchor_color
   browser.display.background_color
   browser.visited_color

and making note of settings;

after above, enter;

    Find:  browser.underline_anchors

with understanding of each "Preference Name", in thunderbird, from menu bar;

    Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General > Config Editor > make promise

in about:config window;

    Find:  _color

make appropriate changes, then:

    Find:  browser.underline_anchors

note:  white = #FFFFFF, black = #000000

make appropriate changes. close about:config and preferences windows. done.
