Details

Font is badly readable on Mozilla 1.1 + Linux (Red Hat 7.3). It happened first in 1.1b, where all fonts were bad, now font in web pages is OK, only in UI (menus, and so on) all letters are stressed horizontally. The worst thing is, that in mailer bold font is the same as normal, so user cannot see which e-mails are new. It was OK in 1.1a and before.
not a ui design problem.

Michael, can your reproduce this problem with a current version of mozilla?
It is better now. Font is readable, but it is not very nice (GUI font, fonts in pages are ok). In mail, if unread messages should be *bold*, they aren't. (this makes it less convenient to distunguish new mail; i personnally solved it by displaying "status" column). It would be nice to allow setting your own gui font via preferences.
