I have the latest version of IE. Why can't it remember the font size that I
specify? Sometimes it does, sometimes it does not bother. It likes to
default on its own when opening up to Medium. This is unacceptable. At
medium, some things do not fit; for those that do, I have to stand way back
to read the text. If I specify Small, leave it THAT.

From Alan Edwards:

If View-Text Size does not stick....

---solution 1
If you are using Eudora 4.2 or greater then use Tools-Options-Viewing
Mail and uncheck "Use Microsoft's viewer"
It is Eudora that is setting the IE text size and unchecking that
option will stop it.

The key that Eudora 4.x will change is this:
[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\International\Scripts\3]
"IEFontSize"=hex:02,00,00,00

---solution 2
In Outlook 2000 go to Tools/Options/Mail Format/Fonts/International
Fonts, and for each font
change the "Font Size" entry to your desired size.
 
That helped with Outlook (2002). However, I have never used Eudora on this
computer. I have also seen IE change the stored font size when I was NOT
opening a page from an e-mail. (It was just a link.) Furthermore, within
Outlook, the View/Font Size should be completely equivalent to what you
mentioned. I would never have found that if you had not mentioned it.
