Format default settings for HTML email?

[The Hun]

Using OL 2002. ----- Currently, the default format settings for email
I send is Times New Roman 10 pt. How can I change those settings to
Arial 10 pt.?

Thanks,

I don't use Word as the editor. Is there a way to change the default
font when using Outlook as the editor?

Thank you. I was aware of those settings and had them all set to Arial
10 pt. However, when I receive email in Plain Text, then begin to
compose my Reply and change the format to HTML the "original" message
changes to Times New Roman 10 pt, instead of Arial, even though my
reply text defaults to Arial as it should.

It may be that changing the format of my reply email from plain to HTML
will always force the sender's original text to Times New Roman. If
not, how do I have the sender's original text remain as Arial 10 pt.
even when I change the format from plain to HTML?

I don't know why Outlook works that way, but that's what it always done.
