Hm, it renders much more readable. I normally default reading to about 12 to 14 point fonts. The 10 point was getting down to a size that some letters were becoming ambiguous, which seriously slows down reading.

Thanks for trying.

As a side note I see that the plain text of mine you quoted is rendered as about 14. That's a not unusual mutation for MUAs it seems. There is no font size declaration so it may be a result of some of the things I did to T'bird trying to see if I could tame stuff. The humor this look revealed is that yuor messages is "font-size: x-large;". And about 12pt is what T'bird classifies as x-large it appears. Most humorous.

I hope you have a good one.

Ted is always impolite, but he's right that the current roundcube editor
is shocking, in many ways (but not teh way mentioned here) and a few
people have brought this up, I understand my gripes are fixed, I'll soon
know in a week or two. It is rare that I post in here anyway, I've
posted more in past couple days than most of the last 10 years combined
:)

BTW RC now tells me this is 12pt, yet looks no bigger than before.

Ted was remarkably impolite the way he phrased it. BUT, I will say as a 
practical matter microprint emails do get rather short shrift from me when 
scanning through message threads. I seldom dig in here of late. But I do scan 
through the messages which look interesting and sometimes offer such advice as 
I can. (Usually on topics a simple Google search doesn't help with.) I'm sure 
my advice would be equivalent to much other advice you might get from people 
whose eyes are better than mine. And mine are far better than most of my 
contemporaries and some of my former co-workers at the time. But, on the very 
small chance that advice from me or someone with worse vision than even me 
might help, it might be a good idea to send emails that are more readable.

I am sure I am not the only person here who would appreciate it.

Thanks

pffft I see no problem, as like most developers if you cant reproduce it, then 
its nothing to bother about, after all this time 2 ppl dont like a font or

about changing things when i cant reproduce it. time to move along ... On
