You may as well use English. I'm perfectly fine with that. As for the
 reply scheme I'm forced to use Gmail's rather confusig UI to respond write
now instead of my mail client I usually stick to, hence that missing on my
part. My last comment was about use of plain text andHTML which could play
a part in emerging of the issue. I said it persisted even if composing was
set to HTML. I believe there's no solution.

It seems screenshots get removed automatically. You're correct but that means 
that in both cases my chosen font shows up as PT Sans, yet I see the default. 
In the drop down menu window in undisclosed mode it alternates between serif PT 
Sans and PT Sans as I type with the former eventually overriding the latter but 
visually none of these is PT Sans. It's rather perplexing. I have firefox 
reader extension installed (Safari 5-like Reader) but despite Trebuchet MS set 
as the font for text to be displayed I see the default (Courier?) font. All 
settings - both UI and geeky - have Trebuchet MS of which neither is effective 
when activating the extension. I safe-relaunched SM to no avail. Now in Apple 
Mail I type in PT Sans font and there's no issues as to how do I change fonts. 
It seems fonts are broken in Seamonkey since in every shape of settings values 
are set correctly but they don't take effect.

Seamonkey mail - can't change fonts. Seamonkey 2.46 for Mac

2017-08-26 Thread ILJA SHEBALIN
Hello, 
Help me, please. I was composing a mail message and suddenly found that no 
matter how many times I would select a font I desire from the dropdown menu in 
the composer window it would stick to the default font. More confusing is that 
(having been using Apple Mail a problem like that with simple changing fonts 
appears uncomfortable at best) even if I choose PT Sans, for example, then it 
would show serif, PT Sans selected but visibly it's the same default ugly Times 
New Roman (or whatever similarly looking font is set as the default). I checked 
settings (Compose and Address), I set the font to PT Sans, HTML formatting, 
still no change. How could I fix it? Or is it a bug?

A YouTube link to view the screen video-capture:

Seamonkey 2.46 for Mac is the latest available version for my OS X (10.7.5, 
codename "Lion").
