    Hi!
    Do you have any idea if there’s a way to DISABLE at least one keyboard shortcuts (or all, if there’s no other way) in Outlook Web app? I would like to disable ALT + S, to prevent it from sending messages by mistake.. again.
    Thanks!

    CRTL+r is refresh
    NOTE: (you must not have focus/highlight on an email in the list or it functions as reply), i click in the body of an email in the other window to deselect, then when you CTRL+r it is refresh, note, after refresh the first email is highlighted, so you must deselect each time 🙁
