Windows Central Question

My Lumia 930 (Win10) can't use backspace when writing emails in Outlook mail. Also, there is a problem with replying to emails in general: the "send" button is often grayed out, even though everything is looking as it should, addresses filled out etc.
The backspace issue is getting really old and frankly I'm getting sick of these things.

I feel your pain!

I have a Lumia 735 and have experienced several instances where the back button doesn't work while typing an email in the Outlook app. What I do is select the error (usually a misspelled word) then over-write it. However, when I do that then the SEND button doesn't work. So, THEN I select the entire text, start a new reply, paste that text and pray that the SEND button work. I usually have to do this about 3-4 times before I can actually get the reply to go. What a steaming pile of crap this is...
