I have noticed that when I get a mail that is in "rich Text" I can see everything and its formatted properly. In Short everything is "fine". The problem comes in is if I reply to it the MAIL app places the cursor off to the right and when I type everything is offset to the right and all the text that I enter is although readable it is not placed in any area that one would expect it to be. Is this the way it is supposed to work or is this a "bug"? If I convert the mail to plain text then everything is fine and the reply is exactly where I would expect it to me i.e. sent text my comments etc Sent Text etc etc etc I am fairly sure this happened after the last upgrade to the MAIL.app I am running 2.1.3 As usual all opinions are welcome.
