Change Colour of inbox BG - Thunderbird 115.0 (MAC)

Just updated OS to Ventura. Downloaded T-bird 115.0. All good. Using System Dark mode.

However, I find the black BG too harsh in the inbox window. NOT the message window in the bottom half; the list of emails in the highlighted folder.

I looked everywhere and can't kind a way to change that BG colour. I want to reduce the contrast a little to make it easier to read. Definitely don't want to go back to Light mode: everything is too white.

Thoughts?

Thanks Paul

Yeah, I have no idea why the default theme broke either - not happy about that. >:(

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1418491 has the answer. If you don't want the zebraing, just use "#threadTree tr { background-color: #808080; }" or whatever works for you.
