Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: 2.0.0.23 (20090812)

When I reply to a message in html editing mode and for example interrupt a quoted text, my preset font and size are being ignored and rather the font used for the quote is being used. Besides, the font being used for the quote is not the font which I selected (verdana small) but rather "variable", and I do not see any option to preset it. 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.reply to a message
2.break a block of text
3.type your own text between two fragments of quoted text
Actual Results:  
font of the quoted-block is being used

Expected Results:  
my preset fort in preferences should be used. 

Actually, the font issue is very old, and is the reason that I usually switch off the html mode in TB for years meanwhile, still hoping that one day it would maybe work and allow me to control reliably font of the quote and my own...
