Text size ......... increase ......... decrease ......... Normal .... Zoom ......... Zoom in ......... Zoom Out ......... Reset Also there is another bug 250415, ie default ctrl+mosewheel action is not zoom/unzoom when shipped also see bug 401322, which is the firefox equivalent

From bug 401322: Reasons to make text zoom the default: 1. Why do we zoom? IMO, almost always (at a minimum >50%) to be able to better read text that is too small. 2. Keep layout? HTML is designed to accommodate all kinds of resolutions, monitor sizes, dpi settings, font-size settings, etc. Layout is for paper output. Web pages must "go with the flow" (in accordance with our font size preferences). 3. Do we need to see low-res images zoomed into a pixellated mess? Almost never. 4. Full page zoom causes the dreaded horizontal scrolling. Very little could justify that high price. Conclusion: Text zoom is more useful and should be the default. People switching from IE can either change the setting to their habitual (but inferior) behavior, or rejoice in the more useful default setting (text zoom).

Biju: Now that the patch for bug 401322 has been checked in, is this working for you? There will not be two separate zoom menus in Thunderbird (this idea was rejected in both Firefox and SeaMonkey already), but the "Text Size" menu now should use text zoom by default again.
(In reply to comment #2) > There will not be two separate zoom menus in Thunderbird (this idea was Then to match firefox and be consistent the menu item name should have been view .... Zoom ......... Zoom in ......... Zoom Out ......... Reset Anyway I am marking this bug as fixed because the original issue was fixed
