I am struggling to increase the very small text size viewed in both send/receive emails ... I am guessing the view size is no more that point 6. All other screen text is good and my composition texts are set at 14. Reading various posts has not resolved my problem eg https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1442091

I know that I can adjust view per email but there must be a global setting. Any help appreciated.

I should add that I also raised this regards version 125 and I have gone through these settings again on 128 without solving.

SOLVED In spite of taking all the actions above, I could not solve. As a last resort, I went into Settings/Config Editor followed by layout.css.devPixelsPerPx. The reading was 1.5 and the restore button was showing. I clicked the restore, the pixel size changed and my T'bird display was then correct.

Really do not know what caused this since I have never previously entered into this setting (warnings!) layout.css.devPixelsPerPx. I thought that the problem may have been associated with the recommended Lenovo System/Display scale of 200% ...
