Default Font size displays to large when composing a new message

When I compose a new message, the font size showing on the screen is too
large. The setting is 11 point, but it displays more like 18-24 point. The
point size is correct in the sent file, but I can't figure out how to change
what I see on the screen. I want to see what I'm actually sending.

Thank you!!

What version of Outlook? Are you using Word as the editor? What's the
magnification value?

I'm using Microsoft Outlook 2007. I don't know what the magnification value
is. How can I find it?

I'm not in front of my Office 2007 system right now. I'll check this
evening or someone who has Word 2007 in front of them can chime in.

While composing your message, click the Format Text menu. The Zoom value is
on the ribbon toward the right.
