Hello again, Shuo,

Take a look at how the folks are writing the messages. On this
particular message, I placed the content of your message at the
top of this message. Then I replied.

However, when you reply to folks here, you place your reply at
the top of the message and place what you're replying to under-
neath that. That's called top-posting. It breaks up the harmony
of reading the message. Think of the newsgroup as an orchestra
where each note of music gets played in a specific order. The
newsgroup works in the same way, and it's much friendlier to
place the content of what you are replying to at the top of the
message.

Now, for your question. I like the Times New Roman font for
reading as well. That's an easy fix inside of Outlook Express.

(1) Click on the Tools menu item.
(2) Click on the Options menu item.
(3) On the Options dialog (window), click upon the Read tab.
(4) Click upon the Fonts... button.
(5) For the Proportional Font: item, set it to Times New Roman.
(6) Click OK to save the settings, and do that for the rest of the
windows until you get back to the Options dialog. That should
take care of your Times New Roman problem for reading the
newsgroups. It also works for composing, but... there's another
tab called Compose... That tab gets used when creating a new
message, although I haven't had a need to set those options, as
the default "Proportional Font:" we set in the previous steps
seems to do it all. But if you run into any problems, perhaps set
the fonts inside the Compose tab also.

Hope this helps.
