Hmm... well I've always found the custom colours in KMail really useful. I guess my main reason is to make the application more usable with different KDE colour schemes. Specifically, I usually change the following to suit the colour scheme I have:

1) colours for different message statuses in the message list (i.e. unread, new, important, action item etc). If you choose a KDE colour scheme which uses a colour similar to one of the default message colours, it's hard to see it. Obviously, if they were hard-coded, then this would not be good. Perhaps this will also be important with message tagging too.

2) The same goes for the colours used for hyperlinks and quoted text in messages.

3) The colours used in messages to represent the various "signed" and "encrypted" wrappers also need to be adjusted to fit whichever colour scheme you choose.

I hope this some insight - please don't remove the custom colour functionality without considering these cases :-)

Though if this was somehow to be worked into the general KDE colour scheme settings system, then that's obviously fine too. I notice it's improved since 3.5.9.

Thanks.

PS. If you want more info, I'm happy to provide a few screenshots.
