I'm a bit slow. Whats the big deal about proportional fonts? Are you
referring to sending email in HTML format? I never use HTML, just
plain text, so the font really doesn't matter other than for display
purposes. Which, I must say, I prefer being able to set my own font
for displaying messages cause I like to look at New Times Roman and it
is not one of the choices.
