As a more general solution, if you're wondering about the color of something,  
bring up a color panel (in Mail, it's in Format/Font/Colors...) grab the  
magnifying tool, move it over the color you want, then click. That color is now  
in the main well of the panel. Now use the settings subpanel to read the RGB  
(or CMYK or HSB) values of that color (remembering to normalize the value by  
dividing it by 255).  So, for example, on my system, the shade of blue used in  
the text in Mail's Help panel is: R = 51, G = 68, B = 136 (which, by the way,  
gives me B = 0.5333 instead of 0.6000; is there something I'm doing wrong,  
Izumi?).  ..bruce..
