When responding to emails from Outlook 2007, text color varies

I have Windows 7 and Outlook 2007. When responding to received emails, the color of my font (+ signature) varies between different pastels, none of which I want.

I went through every tab and setting I could find in Outlook but can't find where the color is set/changed.

Thoughts?

Tony,

Thanks, but as you'll see in the attached screenshot, mine is greyed out.

Go to ...
Tools > Options > Mail Format (TAB) > Stationery and Fonts (Button) > Personal Stationery (Button) > Replying or Forwarding Messages (Label in the center) > Font (Button) > All Text Font Color ... make it to Automatic.

Confused. See image above. There is no "All text font color" that I can see and the "font color" selection is grayed out.

I have to apologize. I did have the "Pick a new color when replying or forwarding" box checked! After I changed it, I did an exhaustive test of one e-mail reply (sorry, I'm tired), and so far so good. Hopefully that was it all along. Thanks everybody.
