And Ctrl-F behaves differently in Outlook as well.

And F5 doesn't refresh the mail - that's F9 just to be damned annoying.

That explains it. In my experience, Marketing never improves anything. All they are good for is comparing feature lists, and insisting that we implement all features present in competitors' products, no matter how useless they may be.

I don't consider it that harshly. What users want (versus need) is often a driving factor in initial sales and that pays the bills. So marketing and sales are needed for that.
But other than that Word is the driving standard at this time. So it is unlikely to be a comparison so much as they need to come up with something new just to encourage people to buy a newer version. That is true in other industries like cars.

Last week I created an email. Hit 'send.' That was followed by a long, awkward pause. Then the email disappeared, so I assumed it was sent.
Found out that our ISP had dropped out for a bit, coinciding with the not-so-pregnant pause. Email was gone - not in sent folder, nor on the server as sent (IMAP copy-to rule). Not in drafts, nor anywhere else I looked.
This is an 2010 Outlook installation, so can't be blamed on newest team members, but still....

If this were in a work environment, I would get rid of any program that "processed" data by losing it. You can't afford to have data going missing without some indication that something went wrong.
(For home use, that would depend on the utility of the program and the frequency of "glitches" of this sort.)

I agree with you. That fact that it happened with Outlook really surprised me, because even the 2010 version has to have had a lot of the bugs worked out of it. But there are things in Outlook I need that I haven't seen in Mozilla, and I don't have the bucks to investigate other programs.

When you partake of the MS world, you play by their rules:
1. You can't win.
2. You can't break even.
3. You can't get out of the game.

Every major philosophical idea violates one of these rules:
Capitalism is based on the idea that you can win.
Socialism is based on the idea that you can break even.
Mysticism is based on the idea that you can quit the game.

Not to worry, I just got this in an email:

The definition of "Reproduce" is "to make a baby"... not sure how else to explain..? 
I thought since I got this as soon as I read it, it would be as obvious to everyone else
