The lines got narrower and the print size ( font size) is so small I can hardly read it, and the categories on the left side of the incoming email page are also too small to read. In addition, I can't make the LARGE print the default for outgoing emails and would like to do that.

Hi ,

You can try using Zoom. This will increase/decrease the size of everything on the page. You can try hitting CTRL and + a few times to try it out. CTRL and 0 will return it to normal size.

If that isn't what you are looking for you, you might want to look into some of the Accessibility features in Firefox - Make Firefox and web content work for all users options. There is lots of good information in that article.

However, if this issue only happens in your Mail program I would look at the documentation for your email provider to see if they have a local setting that you can use.

Hopefully this helps!
