Need help with setting font size and style
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 |

If you are using stationery, some default to a specific font and size.
Tools | Options | Compose. Make sure nothing is checked or selected in the Stationery section, including Blank. In IE: Tools | Internet Options | Accessibility. Uncheck: "Ignore font sizes specified on web pages".

Many thanks Bruce - your avice on unchecking the Stationary section in Compose did the trick.
