Hello Christine,  

Not that this will help you now but, this problem has been well documented with 
Apple developers.  

Based on my experience with reporting Mail bugs, it can take up to an entire 
release version in order to resolve these kinds of things.  I'm not saying it 
will take to next year for this to be fixed but, based only on my personal 
experience, I wouldn't expect a fix until 10.14 or Mac OS 11.

This is one of the reasons why I have not updated to High Sierra on my primary 
Mac Partition.

Mark

Subject: Re: What on earth did I do??? Mail is driving me crazy

I absolutely cannot edit in email, though I can edit fine in Text Edit or 
Pages. The cursor is never where it is supposed to be. I try to backspace or 
fix a typo, and I am never where I wish to be. Even if I interact and VoiceOver 
reads word by word, I am never on, or even before or after, the word being 
spoken. This is phenomenally frustrating, as I am constantly deleting the 
entire contents, writing emails elsewhere, thencutting and pasting. One think 
of note that might be relevant is that when I erase the entire contents, and am 
in the edit field, VoiceOver says “Empty Group” which I have never heard before 
in this context.
Christine
