    All incoming email messages display in tiny type. I can enlarge the type by hitting Ctl-+ several times, but the font size does not stick. A pain to do this with every message. I have found a way to enlarge type size in SeaMonkey Naivigator and make it stick, but can't find a way to do it for e-mail. The email to the left of the screen (showing mailboxes) can be enlarged and stick, why not the message text? Any ideas?

    Have you tested if you have the same problem sending an e-mail to yourself? Has it, always been this way? I am using Seamonkey with Win98SE, and I have seen the problem only once, and it existed in two other mail programs, so it may be an issue with the sender.

    Email type size

    I don't remember this being a problem when I first installed Sea Monkey.

    Sent an email to myself and forwarded another -- the tiny type stays the same. I thought there was some way to set the way the incoming mail displayed. Apparently not?

    Email font size

    :DAHA!! I think I've found a way around this problem -- hope it doesn't explode. In Edit, Preferences, Appearances, I chose Fonts. I set Proportional to 13 pixels, Monospace to 18 pixels and Minimum Font size to 18 pixels. All incoming mail is now readable at what appears to be no larger than 12-13 pixels. Under Composition tab, I checked type size to extra-large, so that my outgoing looks at least like a 12-13 pixels. Can't explain any of this, but it seems to work. If not, I'll post again. Lots of strange stuff with Sea Monkey. Don't even get me started on fact that AdPlus block doesn't uninstall , yet seems to block appearance of other add-ons that appeared to have installed with "success. "

    For some reason you need a minimum font size. My settings are default, being 16, 13 and none. 12-13 pixels is pretty small. My out going mail is set to Medium, which I think it is, also, default.
    As for your extention, I don't use it, and, I found out that deleting the chrome folder of the extention, in the profile, should do the job. An existing uninstaller extention does not work in every case. I, personally, go to the extention directory, and open every folder, until I find the correct chrome. Then, I delete (with Seamonkey closed) the entire folder.
