Interestingly, I had already tried a keystroke speed of 3000 ms.! Didn't help...but thanks for trying to help me out.

Thanks for ideas....tried them all; no change.
However, if I disabled Use high speed timer in millisecond delays, the problem improved for characters that were dropped in the middle of a word or group of lines. For instance:
"ManagePLUS" was "anageLUS" but after disabling the high speed timer is "anagePLUS" (The "P" is now present.)
This was not a problem in the old Postbox version, and is not a problem in other applications. Likely due to Postbox using a significantly cross-platform code base, which somehow is not fully compatible with the keystroke sending facilities of Windows.
...if you have any other ideas, I'd be glad to hear them. Thank again.

I updated my Postbox email client to version 5.0.22 two days ago...then executing Text Type macros from my old Macro Express 3.9a dropped characters when creating new emails in Postbox.
So I updated Macro Express to the current 3.11.1.1, but it still drops characters--always the same characters for any given macro--in Postbox.
For instance "screenshot" is always "creenshot".
Is there a setting, or other, in Macro Express which might have bearing on this problem?

Thanks acantor; makes sense as something to try! However, even at the slowest repeat rate it didn't have any on the problem.
I'm settling on the idea that this is a problem with how Postbox works with the Windows API.
