Hi Anton.
I've searched in the web and read something about this and now I'm not sure if Outlook colors are based on GetSysColors or even in Windows themes...
It seems there's predefined schemas based on active theme and, when there's no active theme it uses Windows colors.
I'm really confused... must be a pattern else ActiveX developers wouldn't be able to "mimic" the colors.
