I'm running Entourage from Office 2008 on my new iMac. I have the
preferences for composing email set at 12pt Verdana and HTML instead
of plain text -- for writing emails.
But when people receive the email from me the font size looks more
like 28 or 32 pt. It's huge. People say it feels like I'm yelling at
them when they receive an email. This is not an isolated receiver,
numerous people have told me this. How do I get the font size to be
normal and not so huge.
Stop sending HTML emails and send plain text instead so that when people
view your emails they will see it in *their* preferred font rather than
*yours*. HTML email is flat-out rude, because you are imposing your own
preferences on others. HTML email is inefficient, because it doubles to
quadruples the size of email, making it take longer to transfer and use
more space on people's hard drives.
