Right now in the compose window, the preview pane stays synchronized with what I'm typing.

Sometimes when I'm replying, I'd really like to stay focused on some text I'm replying to, but it's off window. One way to do this might be to add a toggle in the toolbar that disabled auto-scroll and added a scrollbar to the preview pain. Then I could treat it as though I had a multi-paned editor. I could type on the left, and read what I was replying to on the right.

I have no idea if people would generally find this useful, or if it's just me. So take it with a grain of salt. 🌾🙂

It's an interesting issue. Do you need this in general or is it more like a top vs in-between posting issue? I hadn't thought of it, but the auto-scroll might not make much sense for top-posters (which are likely in the majority). For example, for top-posting MailMate could be told to *not* auto-scroll if the view is already scrolled further down than the auto-scroll position would be.
