Change font size - Windows Live Mail text size

Sandy complains that she doesn't like Windows Live Mail because the "text appears way too small" for her liking. But it's quite easy to increase the font size in the email program. Under the "View" menu is the "Text size" option which lets you pick up one of the five sizes. Obviously, selecting the smallest font size will result in more text being shown at one time so you would not have to scroll so much - especially helpful for those very long emails.

Senior citizens or people with visual difficulties might prefer the larger font size in which case, I advise changing the layout so that the panel that displays the actual email message is to the right of the message list. This will effectively give you more vertical area and result in less scrolling.

Windows Live Mail email client allows for a good deal of customization of the layout. You can change many things including the size and placement of the different panels. Excepting the pet peeve of many users that Windows Live Mail creates a set of folders for each email account setup in the program, the email client works well and does its job without problems.
