If you are using stationery, some default to a specific font and size and
you can't change that.

I selected a stationary background for my OE Express and everytime I
want to send a New Message that stationary comes up just fine. However
the Text color and size that I selected under OptionsCompose (and
saved) are NOT coming up when I want to send a New Email Message. I am
set for HTML on Mail so all settings should be fine. Just cannot get my
text setting to come up when I want to send a New Mail Message.

Thank you for any advice!
