Hi Iona, I can sort of reproduce this, but not in the same way as you described. What seems to be happening after I tap on Reply is that Voiceover starts saying message body, text field is editing or something along those lines, but then it puts focus on the "To" line, but it does not go into editing mode. If I don't do anything at all after tapping on reply and then select Edit from the rotor and paste nothing is pasted at all anywhere, I have to actually swipe to the message body field but at that point I can just paste, I don't have to double tap any more or anything like that to put focus there. I think maybe what happened is that because focus is on the To field maybe you double tapped to make sure the insertion point is at the top and then you would of course have started editing mode for the To field and if then you paste the content would have gone there. I tried this several times with email addresses in two different email accounts and for me on my 6S Plus with iOS 11.01 what I described above was consistent. Now, if I tap reply and Voiceover is on the To field but not in editing mode and I now start typing aything it does go instantly into the message body field, in fact if I tap the Delete button which doesn't really do anything since I'm already at the top of the document and then paste my clipboard content is pasted into the message body. I would agree that this is a small bug as focus should be in the message body field and not on the To field, but if all you want to do is paste something in a reply and then send it without first writing anything I suggest you try the work around and tap the delete button before you paste or you can of course flick a few times until you get to the message body. Maybe you can try, Iona, to follow these steps and see if that works for you, there is of course a chance that it might be different on different phone models, but this is consistent for me.

If you also find this, consider reporting to apple please. Here are steps to reproduce bug: 1. Copy a text to clipboard. 2. open a mail message you received. 3. Start reply procedure. 4. Note that, although edit mode is on in message body field as expected, vo cursor is now on the "to" field. It's not in edit mode. 5. Paste the text. 6. The text gets placed in the "to" field instead of the message body. Workaround is to make sure vo cursor is on the message body edit field before pasting. Hope you can fix this inconvenience, Ioana Sent from my iPhone -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
