I do. However, I am running it under Win NT _and_ using a norwegian
keyboard _and_ having the norwegian locale as default. I was afraid to
ask as it seems that none of the others has got this problem.

[Shift-m] to mail a new message goes fine for me. [Shift-a] does put it
into a spin. All caps unless I exit Yarn.

I use Qedit 4.0 and thought that it might be a quirk of that 16-bit DOS
prog. I have to use Qedit contra a Win editor because the ANSI char
codes play havoc with the extended DOS chars when it gets converted to
ISO-8859-1 when sent.

My solution was to wrap/reformat the article/mail header quote (in this
example)
In mail.yarn, article <jAC9ycHfo1pG092yn@dyson.brisnet.org.au>,

place the quoting char [>] in the left margin, wrap/reformat that line
and then everything is normal after that. A few more keypresses extra
but I can live with that.
Hope that helps you in finding a cure.
