I am trying to use Mail.app but I don't like the fact that it imposes on me
whatever fonts the designers of HTML-rich emails have chosen. In most
browsers I use, I load a custom CSS that I have written, in order to override
the fonts. Is there such a possibility in Mail?

Also, something that strikes me as strange is the fact that Mail does not
seem to store locally images for mails it has retrieved. So, for instance,
every time I open an email (even an old one) it connects and fetches the
various graphics. I am wondering what what would happens if the server in
question did not exist anymore, or the link became outdated. Would Mail then
be then unable to display the information, which would be irretrievably lost?

Blame people who use html in email for that (an abomination), and use
remote links to boot (a double abomination). Hardly Apple's fault if
people create such brain-dead emails in the first place.

If you really need those remote images, you could always save them
locally yourself.

Personally, I have the option to load images from remote servers
turned off, since it's one of the ways spammers verify live addresses.
It also makes phish emails which load content from the target
company's website easier to spot, since they are "foreign" as far
as the email is concerned.
