The graying out is to indicate a packet more than 80 minutes old (i.e., obsolete for a tactical network), per Bob Bruninga WA4APR's original design directives.. I'll add a feature to disable the graying out in the next build of YAAC.

I tweaked the retention times so the messages show in the list for
longer. However, after an amount of time, the text changes from black to
a light blue that is almost impossible for me to read. I'm sure there is
a setting or reason for this that escapes me right now. Is there a way
to change the font color on these to something more readable? What time
interval am I looking at for when the text changes color?
Thanks,
Michael WA7SKG

If you have APRS logging enabled, all your received traffic will be recorded in the AX25rcvd* log files (transmitted packets are unconditionally logged in the AX25xmit* log files), and can be read from those files back into YAAC with the File->Load->APRS Packets menu choice. CSV-format logging can also be viewed in the spreadsheet program of your choice.
The expert-mode Configuration dialog also allows you to increase the retention interval for messages before they are purged from YAAC's in-memory tables, assuming you have enough Java heap memory available to hold the additional older traffic.
Hope this helps.
