Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
are doing.
Description of Problem:
When I reply to a HTML email, the text I enter seems to be entered as if it
is some form of jewish or arabic in the sense that the caracters (all latin
alphabet) become garbled and the cursor stays at the left side of the
entrybox while the text flows ahead. Each new caracter that I type emerges
to the left of the last caracter instead of to the right. So 
think 
becomes
kniht

This does not occur every time I reply/forward an email, but I think it is
linked to emails that are htmlformatted (maybe rtf?).

How often does this happen? 
Sometimes. This may be because I rarely reply to htmlmails.
