Hi!  Maybe people have mentioned this before, but printing messages has a bit 
of a bug.

The PS file produced contains the text in a rather small font.  I'm using the 
kmail that came with KDE1.93 [1.1.90].  While it's better than the version 
from 1.92, the text is still about half the size I get from other equivalent
programs. I use A4, but the size is suited to A5 - an 80 column message takes 
only half the width of the page.

I tried a few different fonts, but they all come out the same size.  What 
would be really good would be a user-selectable font size for printing.  If 
you want example output, I can print to file and send you the PS.

Also: there is no border!  Our HP LaserJet doesn't print right to the 
physical edge of the page - there a 5mm border.  This means that the first 2 
or 3 characters are missing.


I don't know how much of this is kmail specific and how much due to other KDE 
or QT libs.  The rest of kmail seems to be working quite well as far as I can 
tell.

Thanks for listening!
