OE (mail) does not respond to the setting of the font via
Tools/Options/Compose.

The setting in this panel is Tahoma 12pt., yet when I open the create new
mail window the font is always Arial 10pt.

I can format the font for an individual message, but when I return to
compose another message it reverts to Arial 10pt.

How can I set Tahoma 12pt. as the default font?

Thanks in advance

Don

Are you using Stationery? Some use a default font.

is actuall a stationary selection.
