Unless your default Composer settings are for HTML, you get plain text,
which cannot have colors, fonts sizes or other formatting.

Either:

1. Go to Tools -> Settings -> Composer Preferences and select "Format
Messages in HTML"

OR

2. When you create a new e-mail, select Format and check HTML.

Then you will have your formatting options.

Option number 2 is better, since your default messages (like to this
list) will be plain text, which is the preferred approach.

HTH,
