Using Thunderbird 68.4.1 on imac with Catalina 10.15.2 . When creating an email and trying to change the color of the text using the menubar or format - text color, I get a window that shows the color black with a message asking me to enter an HTML color string. I would like to get back to the original color palette. but haven't been able to figure out how. HELP please!
