trouble with fonts in outlook 2007

[jules4dee]

I am having an issue with the fonts, stationary and themes in outlook 2007.
I cannot change the default font color and have it stay changed. The default
font color comes up ivory in all my html emails I am sending. I can maually
change it for only that email but I am unable to change it for all html
emails and keep it that way.
I have gone thru all the steps in the instructions from HELP but nothing
changes.

Are you using a Theme in Outlook? If yes, and you don't require its use, in the Theme dialog, set it to "none."

I have the same problem - the default email text is ivory and whatever I do I cannot make any changes permamnent.
Is it because I have Outlook 2007 and Office Home and Student 2007? This combination disables Themes.

Thanks. Mine isn't set up quite that way, as I realize I have Outlook
Express. If your suggestion is different knowing that, please reply.

Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.

You can also find some good Outlook Express information here:
