Hi Derek, Sounds like your friend may be accidentally holding down the shift key, or may even have a non-English keyboard selected in their system, but a touch typing for a UK layout.

Org Subject: [access-uk] at sign Hi All Does anyone know why this happens. I sometimes get the *at* sign within a word. Like this: it@s rather than it's don@t rather than don't Is this problem with the sender's keyboard or is it my Jaws playing up.
