That's actually a feature, it's called "free caret" and allows you to
put the cursor anywhere on the screen and start typing there. Some
people like it. If you prefer to the Windows standard then (no, I'm
not going to say "use the Windows editor" <g>) you can hit the "End"
key. It will place the cursor behind the last character as you desire.

MicroEd hasn't changed since v1.x, except for UTF support added at
some time.

That's indeed the beauty of TB!: I don't know of any other email
client that gives you the choice. (I do think I had a choice of
editors under unix, but that was sometime in the last century.)
