You really should be working with HTMLBody in that case and inserting your
text either inside existing formatting tags or using your own formatting
tags.

This is Outlook 2003. I am using HTML format but I do not use any tags.
My function looks as such:

Outlook.ApplicationClass olApp = new ApplicationClass();
Outlook.MailItem mailitem =
(Outlook.MailItem)olApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemT ype.olMailItem);
mailitem.BodyFormat = OlBodyFormat.olFormatHTML;

mailitem.Subject = "Incident ";
mailitem.Body = "\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRegards,\r\n\r\n" +
_client.Signature;
mailitem.SentOnBehalfOfName = _client.SupportAddress;
mailitem.BCC = ";
mailitem.Importance = Outlook.OlImportance.olImportanceNormal;
mailitem.Display(false);

All the text populated in the above code is in Arial font. If I place the
cursor above the text and start typing, it switches to Times New Roman.
The
issue isn't so much that I want to specify the font, I would just like the
entire body to be consistent, eg Arial.
