This is happening more frequently now among various different users. Mostly, text is replaced with days of the week but some users have experienced months of the year.

A:
This is a feature called QuickCorrect.

QuickCorrect will automatically replace your common spelling errors and mistyped words.

To turn off QuickCorrect do the following:

1. In the Message box of an item you are creating, click Tools > QuickCorrect.
3. Click the Replace Words As You Type check box to deselect it.
