Windows 10: Default Font Size in Mail

This post was listed in 2017 "The default font size is way too small - 11! That is outrageous. I can't find any way to change it."

Has there been any updates in getting this fixed? I hate that I have to go into each email and remember to change the size and font from Calibri (which I really don't like).


Please tell me there are updates, if not already, but in the works.
