Does anyone who use Entourage suffer from font size problmes?

When I receive email both in the preview pane and when I open the mail, the fonts are pretty small.

When I create an email, the fonts are small too, but then when it gets to its destination, people are telling me that the fonts are bloody huge!!!

I did a bit more testing and noticed that I've set the font to be say 12 points in Entourage and send myself an email. Then I quickly switch to mail.app and receive the mail. The font turns out to be 17 points in size instead of 12!!!

Anyone know of such issue and if there's a fix or at least what am I doing wrong?

You could try using Plain Text (Mail & News Preferences -> Compose), which IMHO is what emails should be anyway.

I have the same experience of Entourage. Always slightly embarassed when I get a quoted reply back from someone and my email text is so damn big.

Haven't really found a solution except to squint when I type smaller font messages. Reading them isn't quite a strain since there's that font enlargement button in each message. And how's this for extra tedium? I type larger font emails and choose smaller from that dropdown menu.

Thinking more and more of migrating to Mail...

... I know how you feel, I actually did switch to Mail for a couple of days and all was pretty good. It's just the pretty lame calendar and to-do in iCal that's holding me back to ditching Entourage!

I changed Entourage's deault HTML proportional font to Arial 10 (I think the default is Veranda 12). That seems more harmonious with Windows Outlook correspondents. (E's General Preferences/Fonts)
