[Evolution-users] Replying by selecting text not working anymore?

[Paul Smith]

I'm using Evolution 3.58.0 (flatpak) on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with Gnome.
I'm using IMAP but this issue is related to the composer.

In this version of Evo a feature I use all the time, doesn't seem to be
working anymore: selecting some text in a message, then using reply and
having only that selected text quoted in the reply.

In this version what happens is the text I want is quoted as the first
content in the message, but then all the rest of the message is still
included as quoted content (so, the text I selected is quoted twice:
once at the start then again in the full message).

So if the body of my message is:

  line 1
  line 2
  line 3

then I select "line 2" with the mouse and click reply to sender, I get:

Can anyone else confirm this?  This is one of my favorite Evo features.
