Much as I would love variety in my emails font-wise, there seems to be no provision for it on either Outlook or Yahoo...this on a Samsung tablet.
Looks like there's a lot of hate for comic sans on the web...;-). I guess that's what happens with over exposure.

Most of my letters are typed using Times New Roman.
For designing posters, etc, I like the various versions of Arial for the main text.
I also use Bookman Old Style and Bookman Antiqua quite a lot.
For cursive fonts, I use Brush Script MT and Handscript SF.
I use a lovely little program which, with one click on my taskbar, lets me view all of the fonts which are installed on my computer:

(That page hasn't been updated for ages and only refers to the software running in Windows XP, 2000 and Vista but it runs just as well in Windows 7 and I'd be very surprised, given its simplicity, if it didn't also run in Windows 8 & 10).

You're obviously not a mathematician, Khandro, if you can't see a use for Symbol!
All of those lovely Greek letters, together with symbols for equivalence, set inclusion, existence and implication (for example) are wonderful when typing mathematical expressions!
