Bug Description
Binary package hint: kmail
Kubuntu Jaunty Alpha 4
kmail 4:4.2.0-0ubuntu7
Kmail Settings allows you to choose custom fonts for various things - i.e. message body, message list etc. Applying custom fonts to any of the 'Message List' options does not work, the font remains set to the default value. But all the other custom font choices do work.

KMail ignores custom font settings made in "settings" -> "appearance" -> "fonts". This is caused by the new message list settings.
Reproduce: I have choosen bold fonts in KMail settings for new and unread messages, but all new and unread messages appear in normal style: imagebin. ca/view/ HPO87htM. html

Thomas McGuire has already confirmed this bug:
"I'm not sure how to best fix this, though, as the font can also be specified in the setting of the theme. It is not clear if the font of the configure dialog should override all fonts of the theme (might not make sense for the fancy theme, where the sender/receiver has a different font, for example).
One option is to remove the message list stuff from the font settings altogether, and add a theme option for making the text bold instead."
I commented afterwards:
"If the settings would be integrated into the new theming, there should be an option to set a "new or unread" style for at least the subject."
