Custom font size for viewing messages?

[David-Artur Daix]

In the "Fonts" section of Entourage's General Preferences, one can set the
fonts and font sizes used for viewing and printing messages.

However, the available font sizes are listed in pop-up menus which one can
not customize in any way.

As far as I can tell, there is no obvious way to choose 13 pt or 16 pt for
instance. It's either 12, 14 or 18.

For instance, I'd like to use Courrier 16. 14 pt is too small, 18 pt too
big.

Question: Is there any way to set the font size to something else than the
few choices offered in the menus?

If not, is that a feature that could make it in a future update? How should
I go about requesting it?

Thanks in advance.

I agree that this feature would be nice. Now that Microsoft has been kind
enough to implement the ability to choose several font sizes in e-mail &
news composition windows, it would be nice if this ability would propagate
to the preferences too.

The best way to request features is to send them directly to Microsoft. In
Entourage X or 2004, go to Help -> Send Feedback on Entourage. Otherwise,
