Thanks for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use? Could you make a screenshot or attach an example of the issue? Is that an html or a text email?

As you can see here, the edit window correctly shows tabulator spaces in the edit box.

As you can see here the preview box (bottom, right box) does not show the tabulator spaces. They are simply ignored (second line) or replaced by normal spaces (line with letters).
