Often it is. But not this time.

Huh? We already have configurable fonts for much less important things. 
I mean who really uses different fonts for the folder list and the 
message (header) list? Why do we not simply use the standard KDE font 
like every other program?

Making it possible for the user to choose a non-proportional font for 
the source code view makes IMO much more sense than a configurable 
folder list font. Of course we already have a configurable Fixed Width 
Font. So we could simply add a checkbox
[ ] Use Fixed Width Font in Message Source Window

But where should we put this checkbox? It would be much easier to simply 
add another configurable font to our already existant font 
configuration.

Regards,
Ingo
