This is a huge issue for all of us who really care how we are perceived by our colleagues in the Windows world. As of the time of this post, I've found 3 ways to address this, none of which are ideal. The core issue is that OS X Mail's 'default message font' controls only the display of the font locally. It does not send the font's specifications into the outgoing email. As a result, any client (Outlook included) will simply display your message in its default reader font: Times New Roman. To solve the issue you have to explicitly force a font 'change' into your message so OS X Mail will send font-formatting instructions within your Rich Text email. I've found these as the three ways to do this: • Use your Signature to Set the Font - Set your signature to anything you like, but add a couple of extra lines above it and set those lines to the font you want.

Apple Mail still puts a single line at the top of your message, but as long as you start typing on the SECOND line and delete that first line, you'll get the font you specify into the outgoing message. • Plug In Software - For $4.99 in the Apple Store there is an app called MessageFont (also see messagefont.com) that changes the font for you automatically to any font you want.

Unfortunately, it works by overriding keyboard shortcuts for new messages (which is probably the best it can do given the limitations in Apple Mail APIs). I did not try it because I thought always using the keyboard shortcut was as much trouble as remembering to remove the top-line of my message. It is another option, though. • Manually Set the Font - Click the 'A' icon at the top of the compose-message window to always show your 'format bar' and simply manually set the font on the text you send with every email.

Using a relatively hidden setting, you can change the font size used for listing messages in Outlook. That is, the emails listed in Outlook that you sift through before opening one to read. Changing the font size of the message list is not the same as changing the font size of an email. Change the default font, color, style, and size for messages On the File tab, choose Options > Mail. Note: If you have Outlook 2007, choose the Tools menu, then choose Options > Mail Format. Our app supports the Dynamic Text Size feature of iOS. In order to change the size of the fonts we display. Open iOS Settings --> Display & Brightness --> Text Size. Use the slider to increase or decrease text size.

The secondary issue is that Windows/Outlook will STILL not map your fonts unless the font-face name is identical, and even when identical, will map font sizes differently than you expect. A previous poster has provided size mappings.
