Public bug reported:

I'm using Evolution 3.16.5-1ubuntu3 in Ubuntu GNOME 15.10, latest
packages.

My email starts by default in Plain Text mode.  However sometimes I want
to switch to "HTML" mode.  When I do this, I get HTML-formatted email
HOWEVER no matter what I do my font is still always fixed-width and
never proportional.  I can change the size, the slant, etc. but it's
always fixed-width.

After discussing this on the Evolution mailing lists
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-
list/2015-November/msg00112.html it appears this is a bug that was fixed
in 3.18.  However, the fix looks simple to backport: please consider
pulling this into Ubuntu 15.10 version of Evolution to fix this
extremely annoying problem:
