Provide an option to allow font size to be changed or customized and same in Microsoft Outlook 2016
Provide an option to allow font size to be changed in Microsoft Outlook 2016 including the font and colors for the folder pane. Also make it possible to customize the fonts for Mail, People, Calendar on module basis. Also, Allow user to make a permanent (default setting) change to the font and size template for mail created in Outlook 2016 under Windows 10, not just on a mail-by-mail basis.
Also, set a default font that is always applied to my tasks. They change depending upon the email moved to tasks.
Also, Please give us a way to make the fonts and lines darker on the email form so that they can be easier to see and use. They are just to light and hard to read.

It is unbelievable that we do not have the option of increasing the font size of the navigation/folder pane. The font size is very tiny and I have difficulty reading the folder names. For some reason we are able to increase the font reading pane (which I have done) but not the folder pane.

In Outlook 365, in the Folder Pane, please allow us to change the font size and line spacing. The way it is now, it is a productivity killer having to perform additional navigation to get to the desired folders.

The font that is used to display the mail in the Inbox and other mailboxes is not easy for me to read. I want to be able to change it. I have looked but am not finding where I can do so. Please advise if that is possible or, if it is not, please consider allowing us to make the change.

Having been forced to migrate to Windows10 by my company I can honestly say it is the worst UE I have ever had. The lack of ability to change things is annoying to say the least. Why oh why did you do it microsoft? When will you give the user back their choice? I am just happy I can download to my Mac and use a proper interface. Even Yahoo is better.

Our firm just transitioned to Win10/O365 and we have had a number of complaints about the font size of the folders in Outlook, the reading Pane, Calendar, etc.

Us older folks with newer high-resolution screen need to see Outlook Navigation / Folder pane in larger font. It was possible to customize that prior to Outlook 2016. Many said that feature was removed but I find that hard to believe such a fine firm like Microsoft would deliberately remove that feature. Please investigate this oversight and tell us how we can now select fonts for the left pane. Thank you!

The screen resolution options suck. I would like to increase my font size without blurring the text. Not an option as far as I can tell. 2016 sucks

Colors would be great too. PLEASE!!!!!!!!! -

I have many folders and mostly check and file my emails at night when I am tired so to be able to enlargen the folder names in MS Outlook 2016 would be great, the option should never have been removed!

this is causing HUGE eye strains, I dont undersatnd how MST is not allowing for this to avoid suits. Also the grey scale on menus is horrid.

It's been suggested to change all of Win10 desktop font size to accommodate small Outlook folder and "To-Do" bar fonts. Really !?! The reset of my desktop is just fine - it is Outlook that is too small to read. I cannot believe that Microsoft would allow this kind of inflexibility (actually I can - that's why I use Apple Mac at home). Come on MS - get you act together!

Your tiny folder names are killing me!! I use my Outlook Folders constantly to organize my email and projects I am working on. C'mon give us a break. I used to love MS Outlook :-(

"8 pt. Segoe UI" as the default font size in Message Preview/List is too small / barely legible. Consider increasing default size to make more readable by a wider audience.

Leaving this functionality out of Outlook - or any MS product leads me to think that some executive's kid needed a "Development Team Management" credit to move past the 5th grade. Serious fail here.

Have a setting of the displayed font size to make reading/writing emails user settable.
