Hi,
Your mother can use the "mouse wheel" to instantly increase or decrease the font size in an Outlook window. However you cannot make the change permanent and the font always goes back to normal.
There is macro code at

Finally, there's a $5 add-in on (ahem) my own site, at
http://www.SperrySoftware.com/Outloo...il-Windows.asp. It makes the zoom factor permanent unlike scrolling the mouse wheel.
Hope this helps your mother!
