Thanks for your explanation.
However it seems that this behaviour being affecting just GNOME.

IIRC, under KDE for example, I see always the "same black".

Before you change the font in Evolution, can you try getting some
screenshots of it running under KDE and GNOME, for both types of
messages (HTML and plain text)? Maybe each desktop's defaults for font
rendering are different.

(We *do* have a few problems with font rendering in GNOME, due to the
way our Freetype/fontconfig packages are set up - last time I looked,
the RGB subpixel smoothing parameters were not taking effect. See
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566125 for a high-level
overview of this.

For the low-level, complicated details, see the old bug
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=104365 - I'm not convinced
that it is fully fixed yet.

Hi Federico,


Really also under KDE is possible to appreciate a slight difference
between Black tones: HTML message composing appears a bit darker and
brilliant than TXT one.

BTW, IMO under KDE the difference is minor than GNOME:
