Yes, I've had this, and not just from Windows users. IIRC it happens
when someone sends a HTML-formatted mail without a plaintext
alternative part. Evo treats the message (or each paragraph, I forget)
as a single block and gets very uppity when you try to edit it. The
solution (after yelling at the person who sent you the message of
course) is to place the cursor to the right of the block and hit
return. Evo will treat the block as a single line and give you a new
line at the bottom.
