Marc,

The wording of your original post "... amd forcing fixed with *output* ..."
(to which I am replying) made me think the Stylish extension was for
writing, not reading, emails, but Greg's email encouraged me to install
Stylish, and it seems to work fine for J forum emails in gmail in Chrome.

One other little  misunderstanding was that I am not aware of any style
sheet that I created, nor of any URL in such a style sheet. Instead, I
simply went into the Chrome Window menu and under the Extensions (the
address became "chrome://extensions/") I noticed "Fixed Width Text for
Gmail™ 1.6" with an unchecked option, which I then checked. Then I reloaded
gmail and am reading fixed font messages.

Thank you,
