Text size too small

How can I increase text size _here_?
I have *View* > *Text Size* set to *Largest" but I need it (to compose) at
least two or three times this size.
I wish to send in normal size, of course.

I have the same problem when I read...

(Before a recent reinstall I could use Ctrl and the mouse wheel to enlarge,
but this doesn't work now :-((( )

This depends which mail app you use. In Outlook Express you
set display size via / Tools / Options / Read / Fonts.

That's it if "largest" is still too small.

That impacts far too many other things.

Time to switch to Thunderbird, I guess. :-(
I think all the programmers at MS must have 20/20 vision.
Theyu should try living with 2/60 for a while

Thanks to all for trying.
