Yes -- without CTRL +/- I could not survive!
Yet there are many websites where that doesn't help; for instance, the
font expands at the same rate as the constrained box, making both
larger, but not allowing any more text to be visible.
I don't know all the reasons that lead web designers to their
creations, but rather than assuming they're idiots and waiting for
them to "see the light," I wish a browser as sophisticated and
manipulable as SM would let me see their sites TODAY!
There was an extension that solved this problem for me for years ("no
squint" maybe?) but it didn't survive the transition to SM 2.0.
Actually, all I really want is to be able to set a minimum font size
for plain text emails and not have it automatically apply to the
browser. (Maybe that's a tall order, I wouldn't have any way of knowing.)

Well this is news to me -- thanks for the tip! I'll experiment
immediately. I typically leave the SM mail window open all the time,
while opening and closing browser windows throughout the day.
