Re: El Capitan and caps lock

Yes, CAPS LOCK will normally still perform its usual function if it’s tapped twice quickly. But once you remap it for use in VMWare Fusion, it becomes non-operable in the rest of OS X. So, it appears that you can only have one or the other at this time until a workaround is determined. Grant >

Agreed, this is not an issue with El Capitan. This kind of issue is bound to happen with any Email client, whether Outlook, Apple Mail, the iOS mail app, or anywhere else. It’s literally an issue between the Email client and the mail server, and every Email client reacts differently. In Outlook
