Hmmm, a possible reason: maybe you _don't have_ the same font that was originally used to write the message. (You can check by looking at the source code of the original message). I didn't test this, but a reasonable hypothesis for what is happening would be: - Message asks for a font you dont't have (say, Helvetica, which is rarely available on Windows or Linux but not uncommon in Macs) - Netscape displays message using a substitute font (like, for instance, Arial) -- there are font substitution tables to handle common cases like this, replacing fonts with roughly similar ones. - You open message for replying. E-mail HTML editor can't find the original font. - HTML editor falls back to _your default_ font, which may be different from the substitute font it used for display. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
