I have a little issue with KMail though. Although I have correctly setup the 
system fonts, I still got my incoming email (and only this) with a much 
narrower font than the standard one (DejaVu Sans). There is just  one option 
in the System Settings that I see narrower then others -- 'Fixed width' that 
is for whatever reason set at DejaVu Sans Mono.  All options that I have in 
that particular section is for Mono fonts that look narrower.

How can I solve this?
