Backgrounds and Fonts in Windows Live Mail

Am I able to get rid of the hideous background in Windows Live Mail (Other than the pastel borders?).  Also, is there a way of increasing the font size when viewing my inbox, sent items, etc. prior to opening up the message and changing it?

Hi,
Although I am a bit confused if you are referring to the same. But here it goes.

To get rid of the backgrounds.
While reading a mail sent by some one else, you would have to click tools > Options. Here you can set the font you would like to read the mails in. Background, you wont have much choice, as it is the senders choice. But yes, you can disable images while reading mails, buts thats again a work around.

While sending mails, if you want to get rid of backgrounds, just click
Formatting > Backgrounds. (This is while you are composing the message).
Or to make a uniform change get to Tools > Options > Send Tab (Under Windows Mail).
You can directly choose to use only plain text mails as well. If you want it to be fully professional.

Everything related to Send/recv options can be found under Tools > Options.

Hope this is helpfull.

If you need more help. Please lemme know.

What I'm referring to is the background of the Live Mail program in General.  It is a bright white with virtually no line separation between emails, folders, contacts, etc.  I was wondering if there is anyway of changing that.
Also, I realize once you open an email you can change the viewing font.  I was wondering whether the font size can be changed when I'm looking at my inbox, sent items, etc. prior to opening them.
