Unless you're using the %Wrapped macro, replying to a message will
quote the text as it's already formatted. No background formatting
is down when generating the quotation. The only way to make it do
any formatting would be to use the %wrapped or other such macro.

The same goes for using F4.

A lot of HTML messages contain unwrapped text. TB! window wraps it
so that you don't have to scroll sideways in order to read the text.
However, when you reply to the message, the original wrapping is
preserved. The editor will quote the message text, using the true
formatting of the text.

Yes; because text messages are usually wrapped when you receive
them.

Just as an illustration, I've disabled wrapping of this paragraph. It will window wrap 
for you and when you reply to it, look at the line length.

It should be very long in the editor.
