Selected last line only highlights more text including header

In an attempt to select ONLY the last line selected in the message received, (See image attached) more text above the line is selected, including the header.  Selecting further down in the message, does not select the header. Even if I simply do a [Left-Click] only without attempting to drag the cursor, does the block selection.

Only occurs in HTML messages, not in text only messages received, and is repeatable in all HTML messages.  Once the block has been selected, Left clicking anywhere else in the message moves what area is selected, NOT cancels the selection as expected.  

Source of the message received (Original E-Mail client) does not matter.

Debian Testing (Wheezy), Evolution 3.2.2, updated using aptitude this morning.

Please let me know what else you need to debug and correct this bug.
