[Bug 1004914] [NEW] KMail message list always uses Ubuntu font for certain items

[Patrick Wigmore]

Public bug reported:

On a fresh installation of Kubuntu 12.04:

Expected behaviour:
KMail's message list uses the KDE system font settings to determine how to display text items in the message list and might include the ability for the user to override this within KMail if desired, but would not override it by default.

Actual behaviour:
KMail's message list uses the KDE system font settings only for some items within the message list. The rest of the items are always displayed in the Ubuntu font and always at the same point size, regardless of the system font settings. Items affected include the second line of information (sender and  date), seen when using the "Fancy" theme, and any message group names.

This bug was not present in KMail in Kubuntu 11.10 or earlier.
