In Outlook 2007, I have from left to right, Mail - shows all inbound, sent,
and mail folders, the next is my inbox, and the third is the actual email
being show that is highlighted in my inbox. My problem is that some email
when it is displayed can not be seen due to colors. 90 percent of my email is
fine, but some email I can not read because of the font color, or the
background color. I want to know how do I change the background color, or
font color of a displayed email?

A quick trick is to click somewhere in that message and then press CTRL+A.
The message will then be shown with the color used for selections in
Windows.

Other ways are to convert the message to Plain Text or to edit the color of
the background or font by editing the message.
