seamonkey mail composer font size

[suseuser04]

Hello:

The font size in seamonkey mail composer is too small for my eyes. I would like to increase it.
I know that I can set minimum font size in appearance settings but it messes the font size in the browser window. I would like to set mail composer font size independently from browser/web page font sizes . How can I do that? I've read that it can be done by adding code to userContent.css but couldn't find a code that works. I tried
.moz-text-flowed, .moz-text-plain, .moz-text-html {font-size: 20px !important;}
but it changes mail viewer font size, not the composer. What would be the code for composer font size?

Thanks,

suseuser04

Thanks, but it applies only to html messages. I never compose messages in html, I only use plain text for messages. I don't want format the text I send, I only want to set the font in the composer viewer window. (Similarly to libreoffice when I set the fonts to 12 pt but I can apply a zoom option to increase or decrease the page view.)

What I did to change the font in the compose window was to use about:config. That was the only way that worked for me. I dislike Menlo font and the font was too small for me.
msgcompose.font_face -> Courier
msgcompose.font_size -> large

Try this, which works for everyone else -

Does that work for users that want to compose in plain text like suseuser04?

Looking at my SeaMonkey Mail & Newsgroups > Composition appears to be for HTML messages. I think plain text is monospace. My suggestion was tested in my SeaMonkey and WFM.

No, for plain text your method is the correct one.

But for html text, it doesn't make sense to use a more complicated about:config route just to do that.

I do post and read mail in plain text. Actually, I had to set the fonts that way for Thunderbird. When I started using SeaMonkey, it imported all the accounts and settings from Thunderbird. SM has the core of Thunderbird.
