RT 3.8.0 rich text color problems

When replying or commenting on a ticket, I can see the text color, if color
is selected. When viewing the source, I can also see the span tags.

But after updating the ticket, the span tags disappear and thus the color
does too when displaying the ticket.

Am I missing something in the configuration or do I need to make some
changes to the theme files?

Looking through the RT_Config.pm file, I’ve set this in my site config
file:

Set($PreferRichText, 1);

However, colored text still does not display in emails sent by RT nor in
the ticket display view - only while creating text while commenting,
replying, etc. Bold and italicized email displays, but not color.

No big deal, just thought I’d pass this along.

I suspect our html-cleaning stuff is stripping out the color on
display. That could probably get relaxed if people think it’s a good
idea.

Thanks, Jessie. To me personally, the value of editing in color doesn’t
make much sense if others can’t see those colors when looking at a ticket
via the GUI interface or email.
