   Many thanks. Your suggestion worked, although somewhat in reverse! Under   
   Typeface / Monospace, I greatly *increased* the number of pixels, and   
   arrived at a good size for the messages. I had thought that section was   
   intended for viewing and creating web pages as stated in the Help screen:   
      
   "Monospace: Select a monospace font (like Courier) and size you want to   
   use for web pages."   
      
   But indeed it definitely applies to viewing mail and newsgroups, and my   
   eyes can now uncross and relax. Thanks again.
