Arial, Arial, Arial! 10pt! Sure, if I send the message as plain text in Pegasus
Mail, it will display in whatever font the reader prefers. But still I do not like Arial, I want to eliminate it from all parts of my screen. And I really don't want to force it unto anybody, not even my enemies, when I send my message with rich formatting applied.

Of course, there are other (better) reasons why you would want to change the default font used by Pegasus Mail when you start a new message. Whatever the reason, though, the method is always the same, and always easy.
Change the Default Font for Outgoing Mail in Pegasus Mail
To make a custom font your default for outgoing messages in Pegasus Mail:
- Create a new message.
- Select Message | Font... from the menu.
- Choose the desired font Face and Size.
- You can also set your font to be bold or italic by default.
- Click OK.
- Click Cancel.
- Now click Yes to discard the message.
- Alternatively, you can use the message window to compose and send a message, of course. The font setting will be saved in both cases.
