Anna's didn't look that strange to me (i thought they were just
headers?).  I think it was the whole mail from memory.  Although i also
would have it the whole mail sometimes, or sometimes the same whole mail
would be ok (initilisation?), just by going to another message and back
again.

Its probably because most of the proportional ones are packed in a bit
too much horizontally for me, and i'm picky about the fixed fonts I
like.  All of courier, for example, is right out :)
