It may be simple, but it is not intuitively obvious. And you're right - it has everything to do with the QUOTE button. :nod:
When I clicked on the QUOTE button for your message, a dialog box popped up with your text surrounded by "

I then started typing my reply directly underneath your quoted message.
In addition, I always click on PREVIEW to ensure that the message is displayed the way I want it to look.
Does this help?
