Different fonts in composing and sending
When I compose an email it has a font that is good for me, but when I look at my sent mail, the font is much bigger (also in the reply of someone to my mail). I have been fiddling around with
tools > options > general and/or tools > options > composition
but whatever I do (I tried plenty of different configurations), the fonts change both in composition and sent. So when it is right in composition, the font in sent is too big; when it is right in sent, the font in composition is too small.
What am I missing?
Thanks for your advice, tips and answers!

The encoding options don't affect display font sizes, and you can leave them at their current values unless you encounter messages with odd characters.

Keep the defaults in Options/Composition, but in Options/General/Language & Appearance, Advanced, set the fonts and sizes with Fonts for: Latin and repeat with Fonts for: Other Writing Systems, and uncheck 'Allow messages to use other fonts'.
The default options for Text encoding are:
Outgoing mail: Unicode (UTF-8) Incoming mail: Western (ISO-8859-1)
Why are the y different and do they have effect on font size as well?
