Is the bug "apple-V (paste) sometimes causes 'send'" fixed inOffice 2008?

I'm seeing this amazingly annoying bug where sometimes, in an open message,
when I hit apple-V (paste clipboard), it sends the email instead
(unfinished, of course). It's not easily reproducible but it happens often
enough to be a pain. Is this fixed in Office 2008?

Mike,
I've never seen this bug. Is there any chance that you are pressing the
Return key after the V key, but before releasing the "apple" key?
Apple-return is the shortcut for "Send Now"

I think the problem is most likely something in your system. It's not been
reported before.

One way to eliminate problems like this is to log out/in with Shift key
down. This will disable all startup items that could be part of the problem.

Do you have any applications like Quicksilver, LaunchBar, iKey, Keyboard
Maestro installed?

I could have sworn I read (on this newsgroup, a couple of years ago when I
first reported it) that some other people came across this and it was a
known (but intermittent) issue for a few users. I don't have any weird
startup items - no Quicksilver, Launchbar, or anything like that. I'm pretty
sure I'm not hitting apple-return... :-(

Sorry no clues. I would suggest you create a new User's account in System
Preferences and run Entourage there, but that's difficult to do if it's
intermittent.
