Hm. It's supposed to be based on the base color, not the text color.
Look in the function write_headers() in mail/mail-format.c. If the base
color is "light", it makes the header box slightly darker than base, and
if the base color is "dark", it makes it slightly lighter than base.

Not sure why it's changing based on text[] rather than base[]... Are you
setting the color for each state? (NORMAL, ACTIVE, SELECTED, etc)
