OE Mail Fonts Size Problelm
 

Delll XPS Gen4, WinXP Pro, OE ver 6.0

No idea why or how this started but I cannot change the font size in my OE e-mail..tried everything in Options to no avail .

No problem with colors but No matter which size 8-36 on drop down I select,and the vertical size bar appears, the size when I start to type, immediately reverts to size 12.

No problem with this in Word Pad sizes 8-72 just in OE E-mail,

I must havae fouled up somewhere but I have no idea what I did.

Would sure appreciate any suggestions

Thanks in advance

In Tools | Options | Compose, is anything checked for Stationery? Some require specific fonts. Uncheck anything there, even if it says the stationery being used is *Blank*.

Hey, Much thanks Michael

I would have sworn that I had already cleared those boxes but missed the
font size box.

That did it, again thanks,
Regards,
oldad

Hold the CTL key and run the wheel on the mouse when in the pane you want to change.

That only works for reading messages you receive, not for creating mail.
