When writing an email the letters are so small that I can hardly read them. If I increase the size then the outgoing email letters are very large.

letters are very large. I have tried changing the font but it doesn't help. This is very annoying. How can I remedy this?

I use these settings, so try them:
Tools > Options > Display > Formatting tab
or
Menu icon > Options > Options > Display > Formatting tab
* eg: Default font: Arial
* size 14
Note: this sets the default font to be used in both display of messages and the font to use as default in composing messages.
Under Plain text Messages
* select: Style : Regular Size: Regular and colour Black
* Click on 'Advanced' button
* make sure all sizes - 14
* select; 'allow messages to use other fonts'
* Select; 'Use fixed width fonts for plain text messages'
* click on OK
Note: This will use the default eg: Arial to be used, but allows the display of messages to use other fonts if the sender specified them.
then at top click on 'Composition' > General tab
note: This sets the default composing text colour and background colour.
under HTML
* Font: Variable width
* Size : Medium
* Select a text colour for writing emails eg: Blue
* Select background colur eg: white
click on OK to save and close Options.
