 Can one control the appearance: Fonts  font-size used to display
 and compose email messages? If so, please point me to the documentation
 on how to accomplish it. (I've never been able to do this in SM nor
 in Netscape previous to that). I'd like to be able to it on the fly
 in real time, so to say.
 When I receive HTML messages they appear to display in a much more
 readable font.
 I've played with the 'fonts' option under appearance in Preferences.
 But that seems to have no effect.

 If a particular message is too small, use CTRL-+ (CTRL-plus) to increase
 the font size, CTRL-- (CTRL-minus) to reduce it, CTRL-0 to return to the
 default size.

 I don't know how to set the default, though -- others will answer that.

Thanks. I know about CTRL-+ and CTRL--. But there were no replies to any
of my other questions. So I'm trying again.

First in preferences you need to select HTML for message composition.
That gets you  Format on the top line - to select font, size, color
and style.

My frustration is when I select to Forward  a message, Format is not
available, someone decided i don't need its choices in any comment I
may want to add.

Hmmm. Are you suggesting, that at least for message composition,
I switch to HTML for ease in composing, and then to send the message,
I convert it to 'send in text only'?
Perhaps it might work. But that's a lot of fooling around and option
changing. Thanks for the idea. I might try it out. But I doubt if its
very practical.

Sure it is. With the mail toolbar showing and the message to be 
forwarded selected, hold down the SHIFT key and click the Forward 
button. You get an HTML composition window with the original message as 
an attachment.


Of course, the original message is not available for editing as it would 
be if you forwarded inline, but that's the price you pay for having 
formatting available in your own message.

Press F1, then search for fonts. If you don't find what you are looking 
for there, try the Using Mail section on Creating HTML Mail Messages.


Last you could try selecting View from the menu, then Message Body As, 
and try each choice to see if one of those are to your liking.
