And since this thread is now discussing X-related stuff, it's being

Oh, that's because the non-X version uses Windows fonts, and the X version
uses the fonts your X server is aware of.  You can add truetype fonts to
your X server -- google for instructions.

Ugh.  I like the above reply style much better than these lines...  Even
though you are doing a better job with quoting than you used to. :-)

Hmm, good point.  Maybe this ought to be changed to a pointer to a link on
the lists.html page, which says something like "click here to unsubscribe"
and redirects to the above anchor?

On the other hand, clicking on the "Mailing lists" link on the main Cygwin
page does take you to lists.html...
