How do I change the default font size for reading the body of messages in Mail 14.0?

How do I change the default font size for reading the body of messages in Mail 14.0? I know that I can use ctrl ⌃ + +, but I want the reading pane to default the body of the message to a larger font without lowering the default resolution.


Using com.apple.mail MinimumHTMLFontSize no longer works in Big Sur.


Mac mini 2018 or later
