I don't agree. The essential difference is that hitting backspace in an "empty" message body (no user typing from beginning of the message) no longer "moves" the cursor away from the insertion point, where it used to. The loss of user-preference formatting is predicated on that movement. Try following the dupes and seeing what they have to say about. Some of those dupes might be mistaken -- and, as I said, the summary of this bug isn't really to the point. > With what authority do you > presume to alter the original STR?

I remember when Esther was active in Bugzilla. I put several boatloads of work into bug triage from 2003 to 2007. You? I don't mind at all if one or more new bugs are started to sort this one out. Given the state of this bug, that probably *would* be best. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584632 Title: composer changes font mid email Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird As I'm typing my emails in Thunderbird, I can see what appears to be a font size change on screen, normally in the second line of text. The second line appear smaller than the first. It's barely perceptible, so half them time I think I am imagining it. Well, I've started Bccing to myself to check, and the emails I am receiving from myself are not only a different size, they're also a different font. Composer starts in some default serif, and by the second line is sans. I'd bee glad to email someone viz thunderbird, and also send along a screenshot of how it looks while I am typing. Thanks.
