Description regi.hops 2014-02-20 11:07:46 UTC
If you view a message (plain text) in the message preview pane, the font used is not the font that is configured systemwide or in the KMail-Settings.
Changing to a fixed font preview (shortcut 'X') has no effect, even if I change the font in KMail-Settings to a monospace font.
This behaviour is also true for the messageviewer in a separate window.
Only the Editor component is not effected by this

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a new mail
2. save it as draft
3. look at it in the preview pane
Actual Results:  
The font is wrong and can't be changed to monospace (shortcut 'X')

Expected Results:  
The message should be displayed with the configured font, or system default font.
Pressing X or checking 'Fixed Font/Monospace' in the context menu should display the message with the configured monospace font.

I recognized this behaviour first in KDE 4.12.2 and in KDE 4.11.5.

After some more investigation, I found that i received together with the KDE 4.12.2 update a small update to openSUSE, which changes some of my systemwide font settings.

So this wasn't a bug - sorry for the noise...
