The fixed width font is used to display plain text emails - i.e. those with either no content type or a content type of text/plain. HTML emails (i.e. those with a content type of text/html) will be displayed using the proportional font (unless the HTML says otherwise). If you have multipart/alternative encoding, then by default the most content rich version possible will be displayed. There is a plugin called "Prefer Plain Text" - if this is enabled, then with a multipart/alternative email the text/plain version, if it exists, will be chosen in preference to the text/html version. As far as I know though, there is no way of choosing the version displayed on a per-message basis, nor is there a way of forcing the displayed text to be fixed-pitch.
