Evo 2.30 does not fully quote message in reply

Asked by Jim McKean

Approximately 70% of the time, when I hit "reply" from a message, the body of the message does not appear in the reply body, although most of all of the header information does.

My email is set to plain text
I have tried the reply options of "inline" and "quoted." (Side note, if documentation on how these options are supposed to work is available, I can't find it.)
Attached seems to work correctly, but is not what I want.
I have not find a pattern of when it works or not.

Working fine in 10.04. Has not worked since upgrade
Ubuntu 10.10, Evo 2.30.3

Any ideas?

If you have a part of the email selected (i tend to select bits of text as I am reading), then evolution will quote only that.

I have experimented with this, and that does not appear to be what I am happening. However, if I do highlight something, it will quote it correctly, so I can use that as a work around. So thanks.

If it isn't something I am doing, I have to assume its a bug.

Seems that if I uncheck "Show suppressed HTML parts as attachments" on HTML Messages tab of Composer Preferences, things work again.
