How do you know what font the OP is using to compose his text?

I see his post in the font of my choosing, which for the record is "DejaVu
LGC Sans Mono 10", in black, on a white background. But if I was stupid
enough to use "Comic Sans 72" in light green on a pale pink background, or
if the OP choose to use the same, why is that anyone's business but ours?

Anyone who sets their mail or news client to render HTML messages by default
is simply opening themselves to a world of hurt. Poor choices of font is
only the beginning of what nasties the sender can do to you if you render
HTML in your mail/news client.
