I'm replying to this message using the same method of selecting only part of your message and evidently it works - I have left out the first paragraph of the original in my selection. I have the same kmail version and profile like you. Regarding the settings under General/Format, all are enabled except for 'Reply or forward using HTML if present'. The word wrap is set at 78, not sure if this is the default and/or if it makes any difference. Given the above it ought to work - or at least it does here. Perhaps if you move out of the way any ~/.kmail2rc and restart kmail, it will create a default file for you to compare its contents against.
