I, among several others, have reported the same problem, but there has
never been a solution offered. NotZed suggested adjusting the gtkhtml
fonts, but that didn't solve the problem at all. (That this doesn't help
was confirmed by several people on the Tokyo Linux Users' Group list.)
This single problem is preventing me from upgrading my machine at work,
and has forced me to install Sylpheed for Japanese email at home. Very
dismaying.
