Hi all,

Since a couple of weeks my autocorrection on using capitals on new phrases
in Outlook 2003 does not work.
For reasons I am not using Word as email editor.
I have the latest updates installed and repaired the installation but no
solution.
It is very annoying that this does not work. I checked the options with
autocorrection but no matter how the setting is the first letter of a new
phrase is not capitalized.

Anyone out there who can help me solve this issue.

TIA

Gerhard
 
Autocorrect requires Word as the editor if you use HTML format. You need to
use plain text format with the Outlook editor.

Office 2003 Sp3 knocked out auto-correct here for plain text and RTF in
Outlook 2003, although one of the updates since then has it working again.
