Custom Colour Pallet doesn't save at all (even within the session)

Despite what one contributor claims (that, "saving custom colours outside a session doesn't happen, as it has never been a windows feature") it certainly used to. And I'm talking MS-Paint in Windows 3.11 !

However, back to today... I keep Thunderbird open and minimized as this feature got broken or lost long ago and I need custom colours to be retained. This latest release (115.9.0 (32-bit)), however, has even lost the ability to keep a colour pallet from one email to the next.

Quite frustrating, as I use different colours for different clients. soem have very specific codes, which I have to replicate each time I am about to send.

I recall your concern months ago and I filed a bug to have it fixed, and it appears to now be in ver 128, which was released a few days ago.

I haven't raised this before.. However, I notice that I am using T-bird V.115.13.0, and it thinks I am up to date..... where would I find V.128 ?

There are still more 115 updates you have not applied. 115.13 was final release. 128 is available at thunderbird.net
