Hi Albrecht!

It looks great with BlueCurve!

MiÅŸu has already raised the issue of the "bad address" color,  
which doesn't theme well.  I'd like to keep the concept--I  
believe it's useful to have a visual indication of what's wrong  
when the compose window's `Send this message' button is grayed  
out.

Perhaps we need a general purpose `Attention' color, which could  
be pure red (or perhaps dark red) for normal themes, and some  
appropriate lighter color for dark themes.

What do you think?
