Some weeks ago I inquired here about assistance for those who have difficulty seeing, as I am one, at present. I am effectively blind in the left eye and have cataract in the right. Some of this may be ameliorated in the future, some will probably not be. Nothing came back at all.
The font in K-Mail out-going is about 8 point on my 17" screen, as is the font on the message names for the incoming mail. I have not been able to change this, altho the actual incoming message font I was successful in changing.
I do not have access to my Windows machine at present, due to mechanical failure, and this is the only way I have to communicate. Is there no way to make SuSE Linux friendly to optically-challenged users?
Please, someone, reply.

In KMail go to Settings, Appearance, Fonts and make sure "Use Custom Fonts" is checked then start with the first "Apply To:" choice "Message Body" and choose the font and size. Scroll down the "Apply to:" and change all that you can. Click the main "Apply" button at the bottom of the Settings window to see your changes and adjust accordingly. I have SUSE 9.3, KDE 3.5 a, KMail 1.9. These settings have been in KMail for quite a while now. Stan
