To increase the font size of TB I know I can click View, Font Size, Increase Font Size . But I need to know how to increase the font size of a received email. Its too small.

Okay, I reviewed the attachments you sent. Thanks. Your wife is sending in 14 point font and your setting is 14 point font. My suggestion is to update the font settings for Latin and Otherwritingsystems to 20, removing 14 everywhere. My guess, and it's just my guess, is that 14 point itself is uncomfortably small for you. I say that because all the emails you've referenced are using 14 point. 20 may be higher than necessary, but making the change may show the issue. I use calibri 14 point and it is quite small in Thunderbird. After change, review a few messages and let me know.

I received your email. What are your settings for HTML? I'm referring to Settings>Composition. A screenshot of that may help. Did you send that email using your normal default setting? This is important, as is your HTML composition setting. Thanks.
I've sent my last several replies to your email instead of here. It all seems fine now. Thanks a LOT, David !
I'm glad all is okay. I have a suggestion you may want to consider. Please review the HTML options BELOW the font setting in Settings>Composition. The section is called 'sending format' - What setting are you using?
Thanks for the info. There appears to possibly be a bug in ver 102. in your situation, your email should have been sent in plain text, but was not. Until (if) that problem is fixed, recipients of your messages will receive in the extra-large font. If you want people to receive your messages in the font size of their choice, then you may want to switch from composing in HTML to composing in plain text. That is, only if you do not regularly use HTML characteristics, such as bold, italics, or color. With your new settings and using plain text, emails will appear to you in 20 pt, but to others in their chosen size. Just something to consider... Good luck and I'm glad things are working.
