           Summary: Kontact ignores KDE system colours.
           Product: kontact
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: itefalco btopenworld com

Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Kontact profiles completely ignore all system-wide preferences like colour schemes. Running Kmail however does not have this issue.

This is an issue for people with accessibility problems / visual impairment because the colour grey it uses is far too bright. Kontact needs to respect the colour scheme used by the rest of KDE, not hard-code its own. 

This occurs both within OpenSuse 10.3 running KDE3.5.9 and Kubuntu.
