Choosing a Good Font for KMail to Display Hebrew on Mandriva Linux Cooker

[Shlomi Fish]

Hi all!

See:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215397

In KMail, the right part of every Hebrew line (the beginning) is obscured by 
the right scrollbar, regardless of how wide the window is. I'm using the 
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono font. When I tried switching to a Hebrew font, it 
caused both the Hebrew and the English to look ugly. It seems the Hebrew is 
displayed in a non-monospace font, which I have no idea why it was chosen.

So which font can I choose which will make both languages look well? Do I need 
to change some kind of font configuration? I'm getting out-of-my-mind here 
reading the Hebrew messages I receive. 

BTW, fonts in Linux are a huge problem. I've lost track of the number of times 
where I upgraded my system and the fonts of the desktop changed.

Regards,
