increase text size in mail sidebar

I use Apple mail but the text size for the sidebar folders is too small for my 80+ year old eyes. How do I make it larger permanently. I don't want to have to zoom all the time.

I am running Big Sur 11.1

iMac 27″, macOS 11.1

Big Sure: increase the font size of open/save dialog boxes Dear All, after updating to Big Sur I noticed the Finder font was too small so I changed it for all the folders from the default size of 12 to 14. It works well when I use Finder directly. However, when saving a file or opening one, the dialog box (still Finder, but invoked by other apps) is still at the default size of 12 which is too small for my eyes. Am I missing something? How do I increase the font size for those dialog boxes? Thanks for your help See Finder, size at 14 See the open file box, size is still 12
