I have Entourage 2008 set to use Georgia 14pt in my reply messages. It
displays Georgia 18pt. I confirmed this when I copied text from the email
body, and pasted it into a text editor.

I disable all versions of Georgia except those installed by Office 2008

When you visually compare, do you see a difference?

Fonts can be set for plain text and HTML. The settings for plain text only
affect what YOU see and not what the sender receives. The receiver will see
the messages with THEIR preferences. When setting plain text, choose what
you like. This is a great feature, especially if you like larger fonts for
easy viewing. However, the font and size you choose for "HTML messages
(proportional)" do reflect the default font for outgoing HTML mail and is
what the recipient will see.

Are you sure your recipients want to see Georgia at 14pts?
