How do you change the default font size in a new Outlook message.
Wang Li had a problem with Outlook:
When I compose a email in Outlook 2003, the default font size is very small. I have to change it before writting the message. It sometime will some how change itself back to the default size while writting the message.
I tried to modify the mail.oft template, but the font size button in the form is fixed to size 10.
Could you help? Thanks very much!
This setting is hidden away in the configuration under Tools – Options – Stationery and Fonts button (at the bottom here):

Then you need to click on the New mail messages button here – and format the font to whatever you want.
Nothing too garish though – you need something that’s easy on the eye and easy to read. Purple prose (in Purple font) isn’t :-)
