Can I build my own Thunderbird for Android?
Can I build my own version of Thunderbird for Android from the Github source? There is a (ridiculous) shortcoming in Thunderbird and also K-9 that seems trivial to fix. Indeed, K-9 does occasionally fix it, only to remove the fix in subsequent versions.
I have some experience with creating Windows applications from Github code, but have no idea how to build an Android app ...
Thanks for any thoughts.

Definitely. Please see https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/wiki/BuildingK9
We'd love to have you contribute a patch.

Thank you! I'll give this a try.
But it's not a patch I'll be looking to accomplish, just a personal tweak to the UI. I want to undo what I'm sure is a little joke played on us by the developers .. a joke they seem to play every second or third "upgrade".
I'm referring to the colour scheme, where it's just not possible to distinguish between a read message and a selected message. Last version, they were 50% grey and pink; no question which was which. This version, they're 50% grey and 49.5% grey which is realistically the same.
This failure to follow the most basic of "Good UI Guidelines" is astonishing to me, given the most excellent quality of the rest of the application, but here it is, again.
Anyway, thanks for the note.

Your readability issue sounds like https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/pull/8387, which was a result of using material 3.
