You don't appear to be using plain text, (at least in my reader).

Hmmmmmm - I am experiencing this anomaly recently too. I've
been on the
lists for more years than I care to remember and originally used
Claris
Emailer under legacy - moving to Entourage in OSX (mainly because the
interface is a dead ringer for Claris). The body of the mails I
receive is
set in my Entourage preferences to display in fixed width 10 point
Monaco -
used to be 9 point but now I'm over 60 and so are my eyes. The vast
majority
of the mail I get from the lists displays in this format but there are
exceptions which appear to be html type format....like this one...
I use Apple's Mail and have it set to only send out in "plain text."
To see if you are actually using plain text, just type out a few
letters in a new mail. Then select all the text that you have type,
click on "Fonts," and it should default to Courier. Try to change
the text and you'll get an alert to the effect that if you click to
change font, you will be using RTF, otherwise click to use "plain text."
Plain text, (at least in my very long experience), always is the
default to non-proportional Courier. That goes for the publishing
biz as well.
