I have been wondering about this as well.

So I'm supposed to use Style * BackColor to set the inactive border colour
in 2.4.3?
What am I not supposed to use? This doesn't seem to be doing a thing in
my config.

This also didn't seem to do anything for me.

This sounds cool if it would work for me. I can't seem for the life of me
to get the grey border out of my inactive windows.
I have a nice dark purple border with a thin grey border around the
outside of my inactive windows. I'd rather that was another shade of
purple.
Also, the raised buttons etc. in my inactive windows have a grey 3d
shading. I'd love to get rid of that and replace it with another shade of
purple.
I'm not getting the man pages or something.
Most .fvwm2rc files seem to use a pixmap for their window borders. I
prefer a thin border with a bit of colour to it.
I got it to work in FVWM 2.2.4, but am having no luck in 2.4.3.
Still trying to stamp out all dull grey in my desktop...
