Mail Capitalizes MY NAME

Hi,

The mail program seems to have "learned" to capitalize my name.

When I type in My Name it auto corrects it to MY NAME.

I have tried to overrule this in System Settings -> Keyboard -> Text replacements but since this doesn't allow spaces it doesn't work with my full name.

And it only happens in Mail and not eg in Word. Bizarre.

How can I make the Mail App "unlearn" this auto correction without turning off auto correct completely?

Thank you for feedback.




1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.


2 - Safe Mode will also eliminate Third Party Software, extensions and drivers from loading 


3 - Does the issue present in this mode ?


If still have the same issue, is there a their Party Application like the one in below link installed
