This is hrev52597, 32bit.
A simple "Reply" to an email works as expected: The mail is quoted inits
entirety, with with the preamble at the top, signature at the end, cursor
set just above the signature; and "> " at the start of every line.
Now, if you select only the part you want quoted and press "Reply", you
get preamble and signature as expected, but instead of every quoted line
getting a "> " at the start, you get many "> > > > > > > > > > > > > >" at
the beginning of the quoted text before the quoted lines are printed.
The number of ">" depends on the amount of text quoted. I'm not 100% sure,
but it looks like the number of ">" is about the number of letters
(without spaces" of the quoted text.
I'm too bad reading the code, but the bug might be in [https://git.haiku-
os.org/haiku/tree/src/apps/mail/Content.cpp#n2313 Content.cpp#n2313]...?
