Screenshot of message viewer

In openSUSE Tumbleweed, Noto Sans CJK SC is the default Simple Chinese font. It is special because it provide extra thin fonts. When KMail renders the message, Chinese text will be rendered with thin fonts, but Latin text will use regular fonts.

This only affect the message viewer, not other UI. For example, message list use regular fonts, not thin fonts. Also, it won't affect Latin text, which use Noto Sans fonts providing thin fonts, too.

Not sure if this is the problem of HTML render engine or Noto Sans CJK fonts.
