Did you check for stationery and uncheck the reply format option? If you did
all that, try a new identity.

You may have a damaged identity especially if it is the default Main
Identity. File | Identity | Add New Identity. Create a new one and test it.
If all is well, you can import your messages and Address Book from the old
identity and delete it.

Note: Do not use the word Main in the name of the new identity.

Hey Bruce, under Compose in the mail font settings I have Tahoma and 12,
but
when I reply it comes out 10.

Hi all. When I reply to an e-mail the settings on the bar are TACOMA
and
10.
Where does the OE get that from.

Is there I can change it to what ever I want and the size also and have
it
as the default?

Thanks/
