Is it possible to show plain text messages with a fixed-width font?


I think you can probably get close by creating this file:

	~/Library/Application\ 
Support/MailMate/Resources/MmMessagesWebView/html_stylesheet.css


For plain text emails displayed by MailMate then the following should 
work:


div { font-family: Monaco, monospace; }

Is it possible to respect the senders font in HTML, but fall back to 
variable-width if they don’t specify?


Very often they do specify, e.g., MailMate has to explicitly request a 
sans-serif font, because otherwise HTML emails get very ugly in some 
email clients.


You could try something like this:

body { font-family: monospace; }

Or maybe:

p,div { font-family: monospace; }

Overriding everything:

* { font-family: monospace !important; }

[MlMt] revisiting fonts

I think by the time I fumbled around and figured out what I was actually 
asking, this [old thread][then] was abandoned, so I’m trying again.

Thanks!
