The “message input” box is too large, and won fit in my browser. How can I make it smaller?

We’ve done our best to make sure Mailman is cosmetically pleasing on as many different kinds of browsers as possible; however, there have been some reports of the “message input” field being too large, thus making it quite cumbersome to write an email. There are a couple of remedies for this, actually. They’re all linked to one line in the template file “t_messageform.htm”. The line reads as follows:

The first way you can reduce the size of the large message input box is to change the value of the font size tag from 2 to 1. This isn’t a very pretty solution, but it works. The other option is to change the value in the “cols=” expression from 80 to a smaller number. This will make the box thinner.
