E mail ?

While typing new E mails the font looks very small. I have increased the font but don't want to make it huge. Is there a way to view it while typing that I don't have scramble for my glasses each time I want to write a new email?

Click the Command key and the + key, you can press this multiple times depending on how big you want the text.

To zoom out, click the Command key and the - key.

I tried the command + key but it just takes you up the the format command on the menu bar. Is the silver keyboard any different from others?

I've got a "silver" keyboard, OS 10.6.3, and command + works as described above.

If I understand right you want to type in a large size you can see easy but have it send in the default size that you have set in Mail. Command + doesn't work when composing an email unless you have highlighted first some text to enlarge. You can type a single charter then hit command A then command + to enlarge that charter and then start typing you email, it will stay large for you to see but will send at the default size.

Thanks Pomeroy. I wasn't highlighting the text first. You explained it well.
