I cannot seem to change the font size and type for mail messages. Per
the Help menu instructions I have gone to TOOLSOPTIONSCOMPOSE and
selected 12pt. Verdana - Regular for mail and click OK and Apply and
OK and when I open a new message window the toolbar always shows
Arial, 10? I know I can change the font via the toolbar within the
new message window each time I compose, but why can't I permanently
set it via the TOOLSOPTIONSCOMPOSE and eliminate the need to reset
each time within the new message window?

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanks.

Mary
