Does FireFox determine the font that appears in AOL mail and Yahoo Mail?

Johnsir

I have begun to receive e-mail displayed in what appears to be Courier New 10 PT in AOL mail and Yahoo mail. The offending e-mails are from a friend using Linux and a friend on AOL and an e-mail from a commercial outfit. These e-mails are nearly unreadable. Parts of the letters are missing and it is all thin, as if it were an old Selectric typewriter with a worn ribbon. Now I have discovered that the problem does not happen when using Internet Explorer.

Hi, please see if this article offers any guidance with your problem.

Hope it will help.

After further exploration I found that changing the default display for mono spaced font, my problem was solved.

Thank you very much.
