After trying to recreate it in TextEdit, I'd say Mail.app uses Arial Bold, same size as the font set for the Mailbox font. On principle, I'd think using different fonts there would be a bad idea, but it is easier to read than the font in BD. After a bit more trial and error, it looks to me like BD is using the same font as the group text, but with the kerning reduced -- in TextEdit, using the same font with white on grey, I had to use the Format > Font > Kern > Tighten command seven times to get the text to be as tightly packed as the text in BD. Using the default kern would improve readability, I think. Thanks for the tip on the Quick Look keystroke, by the way.
