I've been running Fedora Core 3 with Evolution 2.0.2.  To test the =
appearance of email messages I send when using Evolution in FC3, I've =
been sending test messages to my own email address.  In Preferences, I =
chose the 'Arial' TrueType font, size 12.

Why isn't the displayed font size in the compose window the same =
displayed font size in the received message view window?
Why are they different? =20

Changing the font size in Preferences appears to have no effect on the =
displayed font size in the compose window.  Why not?

I have several older friends who are visually impaired.  When I =
increment the font size in the compose window (e.g. +1, +2) using the =
capability in the compose window itself, why does the font size revert =
to '0' when I press the carriage return <Enter>?  I would prefer that it =
retain the setting until I choose to manually change it again.

Having specified a sans serif font (Arial) in Preferences, why is a =
serif font used in in the received message window?
