RE: [Evolution] Specify fonts in outgoing e-mails

["Rob Hasselbaum" <rhasselbaum alumni ithaca edu>]

Hmm... apparently, I've hit a nerve. That wasn't my intention, but I must
say, I don't buy the argument that this feature is not important or will
somehow make Evolution less compatible with other readers. On the contrary,
the reason I bring this up is because the HTML produced by Evolution looks
quite bad in Outlook--especially quoted replies. And since my company (and
much of the rest of the world) uses Outlook, that's a problem.

Oh well, thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, I don't think Evolution is
right for me at this time.

Because time could be more productively spent removing bugs,
lowering memory overhead, reducing IMAP traffic and adding truly
useful features like line rewrap, user-defined line width and user-
customizable "Foo wrote:".
