FWIW, and unsurprisingly, the claws-mail mailing list doesn't think
there's a bug in that application.  I've had to change fonts to Droid
Sans 11 for folders and message lists, and Ubuntu Mono 13 for the
message window.  It's not what I want, but it's tolerable.

I have noticed other geometry changes with gnome terminal and Emacs, and
have had to adjust some settings, but so far I haven't had to actually
change the font of either of them.  I understand the rationale for
backing this patch out, but it does seem to have some negative side-
effects for me.  My understanding is that the patch caused problems for
other people though.  I suspect we'll have to wait (perhaps in vain) for
a font expert to dig into the issue.
