We seem to be stuck.

We have Outlook 2007 - installed recently. Everything was working great --
until -- we don't know what happened, BUT when we compose a new mail message,
the background is gridded and the font is yellow (on white so we cannot see
it!).

I have gone into Tools --> Options --> Mail Format --> Stationary & Fonts
--> Font for new mail messages on both profiles and tried to force the font
black (so black instead of automatic) and tried to reset the fonts by
selecting +Body under fonts to no avail. We start a new email message and we
have the grid and the yellow font.

Replying and Forwarding messages font comes out black, however, it is not
the font we tell it -- it's New Times Roman, instead of Arial that we
selected -- tried resetting that +Body under font, but nothing changes.

Please help!
