Thanks, Carl,

I know how to change the fonts.  My question was simply to determine what the "default" font was, 
because I wanted to correct the drop and drag and get rid of the underscore, etc for the very reasons 
you set out in your post.  See my earlier response concerning the reasons from my question.  

Incidentally, when I moved the new message into draft to resolve the font problem and reopened it 
later, the embellishments were gone.  Would appear that PMMail took care of the problem itself.
