Re: Mozilla 1.3 monospaced fonts

[MyRedHatLinux <myredhatlinux yahoo gr>]

Hi Mike, please, try the following: go to Edit -> Preferences ->
Appearance -> Fonts. There, you will have to experiment with various
font settings, in order to find which combination best suits your
display needs.

BTW, I would like to know more about this "openwebmail" tool you're
talking about in your message (I have a HoTMaiL account and it is always
"a pain in the ass" to monitor it...).

Regards,
