I'm getting a " J " at end of some...

[Boca]

Just started happening every once in awhile I will get a " J " at the end of a word. Or sometimes separated by a space or two. What's happening and how can I correct this? Thanks, have a great weekend all.

Is this in a e-mail? A text? I noticed a "J" sometimes in one of those two when my wife puts a in her message. It shows up as a "J" for me.

So THAT'S it! I have been getting those at the end of emails lately as well and wondered what was causing it.

I've spilled great a many a drinks on my iMac's keyboard and it never rendered the keyboard dead, so much as it caused all the keys to type like a jumbled mess.

Also if it's an external alluminum keyboard, you're kinda screwed. In the past I've read that Apple glues theirs shut, rather than using screws or anything like that, so you can't exactly open it to do much of anything. Popping the keys won't help much either and the keys seem rather difficult to replace...

Edit: Wait huh? I guess I was on the wrong track. That's a rather odd and awkward bug... I never noticed it before but I never used mail either since most free services don't offer POP, so you have to come to their site and look at their ads, so yeah...

It's probably a smiley, rendered in a font like Wingdings, except the font conversions got lost.

Microsoft Exchange changes to a J when going to plain text. It also changes to a K.

Thanks that's the answer. I checked with the sender and they said they had put a once and a once. Great feedback folks. Enjoy the weekend.
