This is related to a KHTML bug, and was also submitted as such. However, kmail has a dialog for message body display font, and it does not work. I put helvetica as my prefered message body font, and nothing happens. I still get an ugly scaled version of Times there, no matter html or plain text (and in Konqueror as well). I made the font server to only serve unscaed fonts, and it became tolerable. However, I still want helvetica font back in message display (I use cyrillic, and the common Russian cronyx times font is rather ugly, whereas helvetica is nice).

This happened suddenly and I can't determine what caused Kmail and Konqueror change my settings.

It happened after recompiling KDE with new kdelibs 2.1.2 (FreeBSD 4.3, KDE 2.1.1 port), but it worked fine for a few days.
