The first is where there is text, and it gives - ╭──── │ Face: ((:foreground #737373) (:foreground #737373) (:background #5a5a5a)) ╰──── and the second in the same message but in blank space, i.e. with no text. ╭──── │ Face: ((:foreground #737373) (:background #5a5a5a)) ╰──── > You still haven't told us what you mean by "gmail"? Google mail is a lesser-known name for the service, but its mostly just known as "gmail".
