First, you should be aware that whatever you use as the font when you write a new mail, may not necessarily really reach the recipient and be shown there in the same way. Sometimes the font information is not preserved and even if so, the recipient may not have this font. Internet E-Mail is not a print medium and not WYSIWYG.<br />
<br />
Only starting with Notes 8.5.2 (the most current version - or was that feature already present in 8.5.1?) a user can itself set a font for new e-mails permanently. In previous versions, a Domino administrator or developer would have to modify the design of your mail database or of the underlying design template to set a different font.<br />
<br />
So, unless you can upgrade to 8.5.2 yourself, you need to ask your local Domino administrator for help.

Lotus Notes fonts

Lotus Software produced the Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet program, and later developed Lotus Notes, a groupware and email system. Following its acquisition by IBM, the Notes and Domino client/server collaborative platform were expanded to include functions such as email, calendars, to-do lists, contacts management, teamrooms, discussion forums, file sharing, microblogging, instant messaging, blogs, and user directories. IBM also release SmartSuite, a comprehensive office suite, and followed that with Symphony, unrelated to the Lotus suite of the same name.
