Dark Theme Text Color Too White/Bright
Please tone down the white text color in dark mode as the bright white on dark gives me/other people headaches after short viewing periods. Other dark modes use text colors closer to #EEEEEE for just that reason. Thanks.

In the dark mailbox theme, mails that are pinned to the top of the mailbox have white text on white background.

The dark theme sometimes is hiding characters when I'm writing e-mails. This is happening in the Edge Beta browser, I haven't tested on GA.

When I send an email in dark mode, the text is white, so it looks like the email is gone in white mode.
I think it's a bug because this hasn't happened before. -

The white text in dark mode is too white, it needs to have a bit of grey to make it easy on the eyes. Please do not use absolute white color for the text in dark mode as it adds strain on the eyes.

dark theme - enjoy it. However, the loading screen is NOT dark themed so I get this big flash of white. In a dark room with dark theme can be VERY disruptive.

When the email is set to dark mode, the colors when writing emails don't update, meaning that to make the color of text white (against the dark background) I have to select to make it black, the inverse.

Number badge on Other inbox is very low contrast with dark theme on - white text on light gray. Maybe it could be accent color background to be more noticeable?

You need to make new mail easier to recognize in the inbox with the dark theme, Right now I can't see whats new and whats old

If you use Outlook on the web with Dark mode on Google Chrome and Chromium based Microsoft Edge, the Open Other Mailbox text field element is blacked out, and it seems that the field frame isn’t shown.
So, please fix the text field appearance. -

Dark theme is too much contrast. It hurts my eyes. Perhaps you should copy Skype desktop dark theme its much more palatable.

With Dark Reader (chrome plugin), the constrast is great. Also the Font-size of the Email is Bigger, Subject Medium and Message small and not bold.
With the default Dark Theme, there's no contrast and the font-size is the same for the Email, the Subject and the Message. Everything is in bold and it's pretty tough to read the emails.
