I have my Hotmail account set up on Outlook 2007.
I would like to be able to read my email messages in their source/original font and format. Right now, all emails in my Inbox appear in the Calibri font. Help would be very much appreciated. Thanks! |

You can change the plain text font in tools, options, mail format.

Thanks for the quick reply.
But to be make my question more precise, I would like to be able to view the email with the fonts and colours that the sender has used to compose it. I am using Outlook 2007 and it shows all texts in received emails as Calibri. Isn't there any options/checkbox such as "Read emails with sender's format"? There seems to be only options for outgoing mail...

Ok i understand.
But what i meant is, for example: A friend sends me an email in "Verdana" and another friend sends me an email in "Arial". When I open the emails in Outlook 2007, both emails appear in "Calibri". Any suggestions for that? Thank you. "Diane Poremsky" wrote: plain text email does not contain formatting - its plain text just like in notepad, nothing more, nothing less.

If they are plain text, outlook has no idea what fonts your friends used -
the message just contains the words they wrote to display to you, nothing about what font they used. if they would use html, font information would be included in the message - outlook sees this and displays the message in that font, if it is installed, otherwise it uses another font from the same 'family'. if you want to see all of your plain text mail in veranda or Arial you need to change the font in tools, options, mail format. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "pher" wrote in message ...
