Default Highlight replied to messages

Tools | Options | Send | Mail Sending Format | Plain Text Settings. You can
set it to indent with the carat, a colon, : or a vertical line |. The line
may be best, but that's your choice.

You can create a rule to highlight messages with your address, but you won't
see them unless you expand the thread.

You can go to View | Current View and temporarily check Show Replies To My
messages. Quicker if you enable the Views Bar.

You can also make the message header fonts larger.

Right click on the Desktop | Properties | Appearance. If there is an
Advanced button click that. In the Item drop-down box select Icon. Change
the font size there.

Note that this will change the font size in some other places as well.

Hi Folks!

I have poor eyesight. I use OE to access the MS ngs.

Is there any way to better highlight messages that I reply to than the
default of that teenie tiny little "arrow" that I can barely see? Any way
to highlight the header in a different color?
