Set font-family for text in mailing list archives #45

Open lewtds opened 11 years ago

lewtds commented 11 years ago

Mailing list archive text is wrapped in pre tags with no font styling so Firefox (using fontconfig's configuration) defaults to Courier New (according to #44), which is very illegible.

An example: http://lists.gokien.org/pipermail/dev/2013-July/000002.html hnh chp t 2013-07-11 22 26 01

Much better with Droid Sans Mono: hnh chp t 2013-07-11 22 29 21

Interestingly, Chrome/Chromium guys understand this issue [1] and make monospace default to Droid Sans Mono instead. So the bug is only observable on Firefox.

this means configuring mailman, doesn't it?

Yes. Should be a simple HTML/CSS template patch.
