ok, click settings>general and select the preferred font and font size. For more detail, click the advanced button. You will see additional options there, such as allowing other fonts or not, and which font for plain text messages, if a different one is desired.

The font for the folder pane, message list, menus etc. can be set with css:

/* global serif font */
* { 
	font-size: 10pt !important;
  	font-family: Cambria, serif !important;}

/* global sans-serif font */
* { 
        font-size: 12pt !important;
  	font-family: Open Sans, sans-serif !important; }


Use the code for either serif or sans-serif.
