Outlook Express Fonts

[wordey]

In Outlook Express 6.0 with XP, how can I make an 11 point font as default? When I change it in tools, compose, it switches automatically down to a 10 point when I go to create an email.

Thanks

What font are you using? Maybe it doesn't have a size '10'.

I just changed mine using 'Arial' and it stayed as '10'.

It looks like you're stuck with either 10 or 12 point. It doesn't look like OE supports point size 11.
I tried changing it and it kept reverting back to 10.
If you go to

New Message -> Format -> Font

you will see a drop down box of options which only lists point sizes 10, 12, 14, 18 (and upwards).

Even changing the values in the registry doesn't work - I changed the font size in both my identities in the registry to 9 and 11 respectively, but mail still defaults to point 10

Boy, I read that real well.

You didn't want '10', you wanted '11' . . . well . . . you can't have '11'.

EDIT - I guess you can have '11', you just CAN'T use "Rich Text" Leave your formatting as "Plain Text" and you can use '11'.
