I know how to change the Folder Pane background color, but I'm not sure what the toolbar is. Can you point it out in a screenshot?

Sure. Please see attached.

Following this reference, I tried this css:

#folderPaneBox
{ background-color: cyan !important; }


(see picture)

Help/Troubleshooting, Profile Folder, Open Folder, close TB, create a new folder named chrome, create a new document in chrome with a text editor, name it userChrome.css, Save as type: All files *.*, copy in the above code, change the color as desired. Double-click toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true in Options/General/Config. editor, restart TB.

Thank you very much. This worked for the toolbar above the folder section. How can I change the background for the toolbar above the messages section?

For the Quick Filter Toolbar:

#quick-filter-bar-main-bar
{ background-color: cyan !important; }

Thank you very much again. It worked. Do know where I can get a list of the CSS commands for Thunderbird? Best regards.

I'm not aware of a single comprehensive reference, but you can usually find what you want by searching for something like 'thunderbird userchrome mail toolbar background color'.
