Version: 1.4.3
Synopsis: Reply types backwards then crashes
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Mailer
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.0.3)

Description:
Description of Problem:
This one is strange.  I tried to reply to an email as I have done so
many times before,
but this time I first had to move the cursor to the top of the copy of
the email that was
sent to me, and then when I started typing, the cursor did not move to
the right after
each letter was typed, but instead, the line following the cursor moved
over and the
new character was inserted leaving my message backwards.  That is, if I
typed the
word "frog", it would come out as "gorf".

I closed Evolution and restarted it and tried again, but the same thing
happened, only
this time, it eventually crashed and took me here to this Bug Buddy
screen.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Read my email
2. Reply to this one email in particular
3. Type

Actual Results:
it types backwards and then crashes.

Expected Results:
It should type forwards and not crash.


How often does this happen?
It happened just now for the very first time, but it is very
reproduceable with this
one email in particular I received.
