After talking with Robby and Ksilebo, it seems like the actual problem in #6119 has gotten muddled. (Perhaps because the "clarification" offered in comment 6 is different from the original description.) Ksilebo's problem is different from mine, so I'll let him open his own ticket for that issue.
Here's how to reproduce the problem I'm seeing:
- Go to the messages pane of the Adium preferences
- If the "show received message colors" checkbox is selected, deselect it.
- Select the Stockholm messagestyle.
- Note the size of the message "Away for the sake of being away".
- Select "show received message colors".
- Note the size of the message "Away for the sake of being away".
The same thing happens when selecting "show received message fonts", but I've broken that into a separate ticket in anticipation of opinions different from my own. :)
