Gmail was buggy with composing mail, so sprang for paying Outlook, now *IT* did the bug today [View all]
I suppose I've got some kind of corruption/malware/whatever.
But a couple or more years ago, when all I used was gmail, it was a real pain when composing an email it would suddenly disappear and not be found again either by the Back arrow or anything.
Actually, sometimes this would happen on DU when tapping out an extra long post, typing "fast" and hitting two keys with one finger - and poof, all gone.
So after much frustration with losing text, I sprang for paying for Outlook and maybe had the two-keys finger problem occasionally, but today with a gmail after doing all the time and work, the whole thing went extremely BUGGY - didn't all disappear, but parts did and there was some gibberish distorted text. Back arrow didn't work.
And usually this happens when there's no time to re-do the whole thing. Today I made the time to re-do it first on gmail, then on Outlook and it just wouldn't work.
My solution was to keyboard it into a blank DU post, Copy the finished thing into a new Outlook email. Before this, also used to type the whole thing into a Word document, then Copy it into email.
But is something going on with the 'net?
