Hi all,

But Mark, many have mentioned this problem before and have been told
that it's a feature and not a bug. ;-) I don't like it at all, but it
would seem that the autoformat designates separate paragraphs by the
fact that they're separated by a blank line and nothing else. The fact
that one is a quoted paragraph and one isn't doesn't matter. If you
start typing just above a paragraph, the paragraph text gets rewrapped
into yours.
Interestingly, I have a text editor called Winedt, that's written in
Delphi. It can be setup to behave in the same fashion as TB's editor
autoformat feature. So, I have to agree that it's a most unusual
feature but one at that.
When you get caught, extricate yourself with the undo feature
(alt+backspace). If you try to delete what you typed and manually
rearrange, it often makes matters worse.
