Sorry to bother you computer gurus again....

Post by David Root »

...but I have a small problem developed on my new computer. Windows 10.

When I try to reply to an incoming email, the reply body shows a tiny tiny illegible copy of the incoming, and will not allow me to enter anything to reply. Also does it on new email selection too.

There is also a small dot entered ahead of the tiny copy that I cannot delete.

I have a feeling this is a simple fix but I'll be damned if I can find it. I never had these problems with Windows 7.

I am guessing it is the configuration of your mail app. What are you using for email? I doubt it is a Windows 10 bug.

Yes, you're right. I bought Outlook 2016.

As a general FYI, the mail app included with Windows 10 works fine if you don't need all of the complicated bells and whistles of Outlook.

I tried it first but it seemed a bit clunky so I went for the full Outlook as I was already used to it.
