I did "something" to change the background screen while composing a (html) message to grey. I cannot figure out how to change it back to white. I have tried using "Format, Page Colors & Background" - it does not respond. Please help.

Solution Found !! Since I use Mozbackup, I simply restored an earlier backup of TB but chose only "General Settings" and "Saved Form Details". In the WRITE screen the background of the text is once more white.

Matt,

I should've aid I already tried that & it didn't work. I just upgraded to TB 31.3 & that didn't solve the problem either.

Thanks for the try.
