Stationery and Compose

[potain]

Hi

I am using WIN XP SP3 Home and OE6.

I am following up on a previous thread:

In the future, please begin a new thread to ask a question. State your full
Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3) in your first post.

Only even-numbered font sizes are used in WinXP SP2 or SP3 (despite the
availability of the odd-numbered font sizes). If you select 9pt, you'll see
10pt; if you select 13pt, you'll see 14 pt, &c.

Understand that these compose font settings only apply to RichText (HTML)
messages and the use of most Stationery templates will trump this setting.

I have created a default Stationery template with the following inline
styles:
body {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, Sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #007d48;
margin-top:1.0pt;
margin-left: 25px;
margin-right: 25px;
}
Same font selections are used for p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal ,
p.MsoBodyText, li.MsoBodyText, div.MsoBodyText, P, p.Style1, li.Style1,
div.Style1, div, td.

No problem sending new messages with Verdana 11px but when I reply or
forward OE uses Verdana 10 pt (the Compose font).

Is there a style declaration that I can use that will overwrite the Compose
font when replying/forwarding messages?

Thanks you
