Ok, here's what I've found. The preference window doesn't seem to remember that I changed the font to something else, but when I actually go to compose a message, I get the right font.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Change default font (Edit > Preferences >Composition > HTML > Font in Ubuntu)
2) Click "Close" button on preferences window
3) Compose a new message, noting the font chosen is the font selected by the composition window
4) Check default font (Edit > Preferences >Composition > HTML > Font in Ubuntu)

Actual result:
Preference window shows "Variable width" font

Expected result:
Preference window should show font chosen by the user

Do the results you have in Vista seem to reflect this?
