this larger Ariel font is a temporary improvement

To each their own. IMHO, this too-big Arial font is even uglier and harder-to-read than the too-big, slightly-less-ugly Times Roman font the original bug was/is forcing us to use.

Scott, I will reiterate. The major issue for me is still that they've somehow coded things so that in the next-10 view, the user has no control over font size or style through their browser settings (in IE5 it's the View>TextSize menu). But we _do_ still have this control when viewing a single message, as we always did. Play with your own browser settings and see what I mean.

Why should these two functions/views of SI messages act differently? In my mind, they should not. The user should have the same control in both situations, and the two should - as much as possible - look and act identically for a given user's browser preferences and settings.

I guess I'm not seeing why this is dragging on so long. It's just HTML, not rocket science - or stock picking.
