Auto Capitalize

[crhras]

If I am typing a new message and hit return instead of letting the line
overflow Outlook capitalizes the first letter on the next line. How do I
stop Outlook from doing this.

Don't you want all your sentences to begin with capital letters?

That said, although you don't mention your version of Outlook or the mail
editor you're using, go to tools | options | spelling - untick the box for
"Capitalize first letter of sentences."

But don't go all e. e. cummings, or you'll just irritate
spelling/grammar/punctuation cranks like me. We are legion.

Stop hitting the Enter key. Let the program do its job.

When I hit enter to go to a newline I am usually not starting a new
sentence. Outlook assumes for some unknown reason that I am. Seems much
more logical to me for Outlook to look for sentence-ending punctuation and a
following space rather than a newline.

BTW, I had already tried your solution but it doesn't seem to work for me.

Thank you for your response.

Beautiful advice. Unfortunately, it won't work in my situation. I have a
need to send emails where the text lines do not exceed 80 characters and
just because I am starting a new line doesn't mean that I am starting a new
sentence.

I can hear your advice now. "Change the email client you use to read the
text".

 

[crhras]

I take that back. It worked just fine. Strange, I remember doing it a
while ago and it didn't work.

Thanks again.

I see from your later post that it did work after all - thanks for the

Good point, but I would say use the shift key in that situation.

Are you sure that Outlook doesn't send a plain text email over SMTP with the
characters cut off at 80? I, for some reason, thought it did.

No, I'm sure that it doesn't.

Problem: In outlook, first letter of a new line is capitalized.
If you are having a problem with Outlook capitalizing the first letter of
a new line, I worked out the solution.
1. Go to file
2. Options
3. Mail
4. Edit Options
5. Autocorrect
6. Uncheck capitalize first letter of sentence. I know this doesn?t sound right, but this has to be turned off to get rid of the problem. Apparently Outlook treat all letter that start on a new line as the first letter in a sentence.

This problem is also in MSWord. To fix it:
Go to file
Options
Proofing
Edit Options
Autocorrect
Uncheck capitalize first letter of sentence.
