Yes, it's because the email you are replying to is in HTML and the Evo composer is having problems trying to work out where in the complexity of the crap html that it needs to put your text. It's usually something to do with tables and nested div sections. Yes, this even applies if you are replying in "plain text" - the composer is still aware of the HTML in the original message. As a rule of thumb - if there is a dotted box around the text, then Evo can't put your reply into the middle of it. If you can find a junction between two dotted boxes, then often you can put a reply in correctly. I believe there is new composer in the pipeline for Evo - but I don't know if it will be any better at dealing with HTML. The answer is, of course for no one to use HTML in emails - but then people wouldn't be able to have their cutesy little pictures and oh so clever formatting.
