Font size override doesn't work

[Brian J. Murrell]

If I try to use Preferences->Mail Preferences->Message Fonts (with "Use the same fonts as other applications" unchecked of course) to override the general desktop font I can only only override the message display font and not the UI font. Meaning, I can change the selector, it just doesn't actually change any UI fonts.

If I use gconf-editor to adjust /desktop/gnome/interface/font_name, the evolution UI follows those changes. I don't want to change all of the fonts on my desktop however and just want to adjust the fonts in evolution.
