Default "Display Messages" font

This setting seems to work only on messages created in Plain Text or if one
has checked the option to Read All Messages in Plain Text.

Messages created using Rich Text (HTML) are not effected by this setting.
If you want this setting to function on Rich Text messages, check the option
to Read All Messages in Plain Text.

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 there.

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