Email font type

[DaoTe]

How can I change the default email font (Trebuchet) to another of the available fonts, for example Times New Roman or Tahoma?

The solution did not do anything. I open a new mail, which is set to HTML, choose  Tahoma (or another font) instead of the default Trebuchet, no problem. But when I click on Settings, it asks if I want to save the email or not and only then (whether I say yes or no) can I click on Save settings but when I open a new email the font has reverted to Trebuchet

@DaoTe 

thanks for the feedback

which browser is used: Firefox, Safari, Edge, Chrome, others?

and which system is installed: Microsoft PC, Apple Mac, other?

Advice: test with another browser than the one usually used

Hi Mamba:

I have a HP PC running Windows 10 and use Firefox as my browser

There is no option to change the font and font size permanently

to become the defaults (Trebuchet/Normal)

another font choice must be made manually

Tip:

use an external email system such as Thunderbird (free) or Outlook (paid)

the features are more numerous and the settings easily changeable on a permanent basis

Thanks for your help. I have tried both Outlook and Thunderbird and am fond of neither. An obvious and simple solution would be for Swisscom Bluewin to modify the current software to permit clients to set their own defaults.

An obvious and simple solution would be for Swisscom Bluewin to modify the current software to permit clients to set their own defaults.

It is very improbable that Swisscom modifies in the near future the features of Webmail (Swisscom Bluewin), this would require a huge investment for a minority of concerned customers, the majority using already native messaging on smartphone or external messaging on a computer.

But do we never know?

You have to wait and arm with patience!
