Attached image arial serif fail
20080921132434 Thunderbird/3.0b1pre linux I don't have arial installed on this box. I like to avoid it, too, because having it installed makes half the web look lame. (It's rendered fine, I'm just not particularily fond of it.) With today's trunk version of the header pane, I get my default content font, dejavu/vera serif in the header pane. It looks kinda sucky on the buttons. The usual pattern for this sort of stuff is to not forget to specify a generic family as fallback to the specific one, i.e. font-family: Arial, sans-serif; FWIW, I think I'd prefer for it to just use the default ui font.

Summary: arial ui font works poorly if you don't have it → header pane: arial ui font works poorly if you don't have it
after bug 455801 or thereabouts, this is now an issue with #collapsedHeaderView only; #expandedHeaderView is good.
The bad news is I'm duping you forward; the good news is I'm doing it because davida's talking patch in that bug.
