I have two persistent and irritating problems with editing emails in Outlook,
I'd be grateful for any pointers on how to deal with them:
1) When replying to a message from a recipient flagged to receive HTML
formatting, I include the message to which I am replying. This is indicated
by a vertical blue line at the left edge of the page. I would like to insert
comments amongst the text of this message in the style of a quoted
(blue-lined) block of text followed by my unquoted response. However, if I
type in amongst the quoted text, the blue vertical line also appears
alongside my text, making it impossible to clearly see the difference between
what my correspondent wrote and what I wrote. Text-only emails do not have
this problem with the ">" signs being properly editable. I do not know how
to switch from one to the other.
2) Occasionally, while writing an email, when I get to the bottom of the
window while typing, the window will move to some other portion of the
message while leaving the insertion point where it is. I can keep typing as
usual, but I can no longer see what I am typing unless I manually move the
window back. This is very annoying and obviously a bug. Is there a fix?
Thank you for any help, I do often find these forums most useful.
Cheers,
Tim
