Mozilla 1.3 monospaced fonts

["Mike Vanecek" <rh_list mm-vanecek cc>]

RH 9, Mozilla 1.3

I use cron to send reports (such as the daily tripwire check) to an email
address. I then use openwebmail to read them. I have openwebmail set to read
messages in fixed fonts.

If I read the messages using IE 5.5 from a windows box, they display in fixed
font and the columns line up real pretty.

If I read the messages from a Linux box using Mozilla 1.3, the columns in the
messages do not line up straight. Mozilla is configured with the default fixed
font as monospaced and allow documents to use other fonts is enabled
(althought it does not seem to make a difference).

How can Mozilla be made to display the messages where the columns line up
correctly? 

If it cannot,
 
 are there any Linux browsers that can?

 is this a bug that needs to be buried in bugzilla.mozilla?
