However, many messages are showing up in Sans-serif which is set to
Arial.
Anyone else seeing this? This is a fresh profile and a fresh install of
SeaMonkey.
Check your prefs again.
Monospace can be set to different fonts for different encodings, so for
example you can have Monospace = Arial for Unicode but Monospace =
Courier New for Western.
The point is that if incoming messages have different encodings,
SeaMonkey will obey your different instructions for each.
Paul, appreciate your reply. However, it's not helpful. You tell me to
check my settings. I detailed them in my OP. And you had nothing
specific to say about that which might help.
It does appear to relate to different encodings but I can't figure out
what settings in SM might relate to this, especially with a totally
fresh profile.
Check the source of those messages, and see if the Content-Type is different
for the messages viewed as Sans-Serif and compare them to the Content-Type for
the ones displaying in Courier New.
Here Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 encoding is smaller than those
composed with Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252. I have no idea if
the font is different.
