Can't Change Font Size in windows mail

[Gary VanderMolen]

I don't know what could be wrong with your Windows Mail, but
instead of reinstalling Vista, it would be easier to upgrade to
Windows Live Mail: http://download.live.com/wlmail

I'm new to Vista and still working through all functions but have become
frustrated with not finding a fix to my font size feature. All the
functions of the windows mail tool bar works except font size. I can change
font styles, color, underscore, make bolder etc but can not change the font
size. The font size dropdown box works but when I click on a different size
it doesn't take. Same if I go up top to "Format". I get the display box to
choose font styles but again can't change font size. Can someone out help
help me with this.

Is your email client set to read and compose in plain text ?

Try this, open **Internet Explorer**>tools menu>internet
options>general tab>on the bottom of the dialogue box click the
Accessibility button, ensure that none of those 4 items are selected.

If any where selected, you will have to close both IE & WM for the change to
take effect.
