| | Default font size in Windows Mail Hi, does anyone know how to permanently set a default font size in Windows Mail? My Windows Mail default font is 10 but I would prefer it to be 12. However there does not seem to be an option to change it to 12 automatically, instead of remembering to reset it before starting to type an email. thank you |

| | RE: Default font size in Windows Mail Yep, tried that - but every time I compose a new email, it still comes out Ariel instead of Comic Sans. Does it have something to do with the default signature I have on each new email? The signature option gave me no way to edit the font of the signature. -- newgirl "sherbert" wrote: Quote: > Tools,options,compose, mail (Top row) font sttings, change it to what you > want, then click apply (at the bottom) then ok.

| | Re: Default font size in Windows Mail I can't duplicate what you are seeing. Under Tools, Options, Compose, make sure that no stationery is selected because it overrides the font selection. The other possibility is that you are using some type of security software that is preventing writes to the registry. That would prevent your font selection from being saved. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (WLMail) "newgirl" <newgirl@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:9895B31E-4C05-4E65-A5AC-A5AAEB447AB3@xxxxxx Quote: > Its HTML > -- > newgirl > > > "Gary VanderMolen" wrote: > Quote: >> When you compose a new email, is it in HTML or plain text format? >> Check your Tools, Options, Send, Mail Sending Format. >> -- >> Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (WLMail) >> >> >> "newgirl" <newgirl@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:F8960B1A-8402-446A-852F-61B0749E5CC9@xxxxxx Quote: >> > Yep, tried that - but every time I compose a new email, it still comes out >> > Ariel instead of Comic Sans.
