More information

Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.
After the service pack has been applied, you will now be able to specify the font size by setting the following registry value:
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
   \MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem\InternetContent

   Name: FontSize
   Type: REG_DWORD
   Range: 1 - 7
   Default: 2

The value specifies an index into a table. The current values of the table are:
   1 = 8 pt
   2 = 10 pt
   3 = 12 pt
   4 = 14 pt
   5 = 16 pt
   6 = 20 pt
   7 = 24 pt
