Default Can't Change Fonts When Reading Messages

The behavior is a known bug in Windows Live Mail and in Windows Mail (Vista)
with IE8 Beta 2 installed. I have not heard anyone say they've seen the
behavior in OE though.

I am running WinXP SP3 with Outlook Express.

I also have Window Live Mail and that is also having the same problem

When I go into tools-options-read-fonts to change the font in fixed

font from Courier New to Lucida Console nothing happens. The email
message
still displays in Courier New
