specifying fonts for composing, replying and fowarding

[dave]

Hello
I'm using outlook 2003 with XP as Opertaing System.
I setup my fonts and signature Arial 10 pt. with Navy
color.
I did setup fonts up from Tools, options, mail format and
fonts and put 10pt. Arial with navy color for composing a
new message and for when replying and forwarding.

It works fine if you reply any message from Inbox but if
you reply message from other than Inbox folder it pickups
default font and black color..

How can I solve this?
Thanx
Dave
