Settings in Edit-Preferences->Appearance->Fonts _do_ affect the display
of plain text messages. I have changed my monospace font size there and
it changed the view of news messages. As you can see, settings in
Edit-Preferences->Appearance->Fonts are separate for each encoding. I've
changed the size to 14px only for my native encoding (Central European),
so I still see most of the posts on this group in 12px small font. Some
posts are displayed with bigger fonts - for example those with chinese
encoding :-) But both messages mentioned by Klaus Meyer are 'us-ascii',
so I see no difference between them (they're both small)...
(BTW, changing 12 to 13px had no effect, but I heard that Moz has some
problems with Unix fonts. 14px made the change).

I think the above setting changed the font size in Composer too, but I
can't be sure.
