It doesn't just skip key presses, it actually invokes commands as I'm typing. Entire threads frequently get archived because of this. So annoying!

Unfortunately, using another client requires a working application ID and whatnot in active directory. Getting IT to do this isn't going to happen, they're too heads up MSFT y'know what.

You can turn off hot keys, which would probably fix this issue. I cried the day I figured out I could disable the ‘hover’ buttons on mailthreads, which I’d inadvertently used to archive / delete mail hundreds of times before. The entire UI looks pretty, but is absolutely useless.
