Re: [Evolution] Font display problems redux

[Larry Underhill <lunderhi attbi com>]

I have recently had the joy of switching my wife's computer over to linux. I too am running Redhat 8.0 on 
that machine with 1.0.8 Evolution and I'm using the MS webfonts as well. I have the same exact problem as 
described by Cliff.

I have observed the following:

1. HTML adverts from say, Amazon will not display text. If I toggle the 'load images' selection, then I get 
the images to load in the html email, but still no text.

2. Random messages from friends do not display the text in the email. If I hit 'reply' then I I can view the 
text. The only somewhat consistent thing that I have found is: a) the MUA from the offending sender is 
Outlook Express (5/6) b) the sender is sending me a new mail -- not replying or forwarding. However, this is 
not 100%... more like 90%.

I have a pretty stock install of Redhat 8.0 on this machine. I chose the 'workstation' option during the 
install process and I am running GNOME rather than KDE.

If I can provide more relevant info, I'll be happy to. I've managed to get my spouse to run RH 8.0, but 
somehow I can't convince her that mutt is really cool and that writing your own perl scripts to query the 
ldap server is fun ;) If I get this fixed, she will be real happy.

Cheers,

Larry Underhill
