Submitting a novel for publication: do editors still expect Courier font?

Question

About ten years ago an agent told me not to submit manuscripts in fonts other than Courier (or Courier New) and to double-space lines. He said editors were prejudiced against manuscripts that looked like they were written on a word processor (as opposed to a typewriter, I guess).Assuming this was ever true, do editors still expect to see the monospace Courier font?

Answer 1

From what I noticed in submission guidelines, Times New Roman seems to be the new standard.
