Bug Description
* Impact
Using some themes viewing an HTML e-mail which does not define a default color for the text, Evolution renders the e-mail with white text on a white background.
* Test case
This only seems to affect the Adwaita Dark and Yaru Dark themes. Switching to Adwaita or any other non-dark theme, the background is white, and the text is black.
Select a such theme and try to view an HTML email
* Regression potential
Check that html rendering is still fine with the default theme and others
-------
Prior to the updates that landed this week, the text use to be black for items such as "Retrieving message <identifier>" and inline calendar event details. These have now changed to white text for dark themes, which is correct, but might have also introduced the white text on white background issue for HTML mail messages that don't define a default text color.

I forgot to add that this upstream report (https:/ /gitlab. gnome.org/ GNOME/evolution /issues/ 292) indicates that issues like this are related to the theme, rather than evolution itself.
