I am using TB under Ubuntu 22.04 ONLY because Gnome Evolution is requiring OAuth2 for IMAPX accounts that don't provide such authorization. TB and Outlook 365 (under Win 10) don't have that problem.

TB has a major, major problem in that it will not keep constant font, font-size, and line-spacing when I write or reply to emails. Why can't TB hold an exact font size (e.g., Arial 11). and line spacing (single) when I compose or reply to emails. I have seven (7) email accounts and I should not have to worry about having to set properties for each.

There are no font settings for each account. Go to Preferences > Composition > HTML Style and choose the font you want for composing messages. While there, uncheck the option that says "Use Paragraph format..." for single line spacing.

Thank you for your reply. What are true front sizes for Large, Extra Large, and Huge?

4, 5 and 6, respectively. They are numeric values used for the size attribute of the <font> HTML tag. They are not absolute values though, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25897264/convert-font-tag-size-attribute-to-css </font>
