Hi all,

Has anyone else noticed that Mail.app has change the way it handles deleting 
highlighted text. The change seems to have started around the time of the 
update to OS X version 10.6.6.

Previously Mail.app behaved as TextEdit does now. If one highlights text and 
deletes it, the remaining text is unhighlighted and the cursor becomes an 
insertion point where the deleted text used to be so one can carry on typing.

Now, in Mail.app, if one highlights text and deletes it, the highlighted text 
is indeed deleted but the highlighting remains in the same position. New text 
moves in under the highlight. If cone continues to type, this new highlighted 
text will be overwritten. One usually must clear the highlight with a mouse 
click or an arrow key before one can resume typing.

Am I the only one experiencing this? I could get my Mac mini out of mothballs 
to check, but I though one of you would know immediately.

Cheers,
Carlo
