Sorry: I pasted the HTML code test case which was interpreted instead of copied. The original test case is here:

This is labeled Chosen Solution. IT IS NOT. It is merely a clarification.

Hello Community Support: Can anybody help? The test case clearly shows the problem. Is it a bug? Configuration? What? Please help.

Do all the fonts not work? The bugzilla conversation seems to suggest that it's a known problem, but I can't make out if that is for specific fonts or all fonts.

Clutching at straws: have you ticked the "Allow messages to use other fonts" checkbox?
