How do I change the font size in Thunderbird? I am talking about the font size for everything. The titles, the menu titles, the messages. Everything is too small. Is there a way to see what has changed from default font settings or a way to reset back to default font sizes? Thank you

Chosen solution

Okay, do this delicately. - close TB - make copy of prefs.js in profile in case you don't like results and need to restore original - start TB - go to tools>preferences>general and scroll down to config editor. - look for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx default is -1.0 try a minor change, such as 1.2 and see how that works. or maybe 2.0. This causes an immediate change. - if not what you want, repeat until pleased. If you made font too big to use TB, then

   close TB, and restore the copy of prefs.js and start over.
