Default How do I change the default font for incoming mail messages?

Hi aerowelder,

I saw how this worked for "plain text" messages, but most of the emails we
receive are formatted at RTF or HTML. Do you know if there is a setting for
these types of incoming messages?

We are having a problem with messages being sent in one font size (12 pts,
for example), but being received in a smaller font size (8 pts, for example).
I'm trying to narrow down if this is something that can be fixed through the
user's options, or if our Exchange server is converting messages after they
are sent for some reason. It is not the user's zoom setting, which seemed to
be the cause for many of the posts listed with a similar problem. I did post
a question about this last week, but I think I've stumped everyone out there.
So, I'm continuing to look through posts for anything that may help solve
this problem.

Thanks for any feedback!

whatever you like. You can even change font style.
