SYMPTOMS
When you are using Windows Messaging to view Internet mail, if the mail is formatted in columns using spaces to align the text, the columns do not align.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because Windows Messaging does not use a fixed-pitch (or monospace) font to display messages. The default font in Windows Messaging is a variable-pitch font. There is currently no way to change the default font to a fixed-pitch font.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
