Question Font Size Between Sender And Sendee?

When a person emails another using a font size of Courier 12, what size should it be at the reciever's site?
Example: My in-laws use Courier 14 because of their poor eyesite. When they email someone, it comes out very small, even though the reciever's font size is set to 14. Something I'm missing here?

If the senders screen is at 640x480, using Courier 14pt, with viewable font sizes at 125% (large, via display properties), and yours is 1024x768 with fonts at normal, they will appear reeeeeeeeeaaaaallllly tiny.

Reboot, that answers the question. I never gave individual screen resolution a thought. Thank you.
