Outlook Font Colors by Category

[Guest]

I defined categories to help organize email in Outlook, then defined a view to assign different font colors to related groupings of categories, and applied the view. But I see no colors

Notes from people on my "junk" list have always apeared in grey, and notes from my "adult" list have always apeared in red so I can erase these easily. But none of color assignments I just made appear in anything other than black (or bold black if unread)

Can someone point me to how to use colors?

The problem eventually resolved itself. I don't know how but won't worry about it

Tks.
