<p dir="auto">You can put them in your own bundle. The default themes are just within a bundle distributed with MailMate. More about bundles <a href="https://github.com/mailmate/mailmate_manual/wiki/Bundles" style="color:#3983C4">here</a>. I usually warn that it can be very hard to know how things are going to look in the recipient email clients. It is best if you are so fortunate that you have access to Litmus or a similar service.</p>

You'll need to replace it each time you update the app.</p>

<p dir="auto">This can be avoided by creating a new bundle and putting it here:</p>
<pre style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:5px 5px 5px 5px; margin-left:15px; margin-right:15px; max-width:90vw; overflow-x:auto; padding:5px" bgcolor="#F7F7F7"><code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Bundles/

<p dir="auto">It's like they realize how convenient in-between replying is and then ends up doing it in a way which makes it very hard for an email client to figure out what's going on. (I wonder how well this works in email clients which can hide quoted text.)</p>
</div>
<div style="white-space:normal"><blockquote style="border-left:2px solid #777; color:#777; margin:0 0 5px; padding-left:5px"><p dir="auto">and when they do, they mark their comments as theirs by *coloring* them (and putting their initials on them). That's easy enough to read (although they have to put something at the top saying "please see my comments inline" or nobody looks for them), but because I can't edit the HTML, I can't do the same thing in reply. So I tend to top-comment with a little macro to quote things.<br>

Like that. Bleh.</p>

<p dir="auto">Yeah, this one is very hard to work around in MailMate.</p>
