Apple Mail: text missing in reply - partial diagnosis
When replying to email I have the default set to include the original text. However sometimes the text does not show up in my reply. What I've noticed is that when this happens, I have switched away from Mail to another app and then come back. At this point the email I've selected in my inbox is now highlighted in gray rather than black. If I click on reply now, the original text is lost. If I re-select the message in my inbox it becomes highlighted in black and a subsequent reply will include all of the text. Does anyone know what this intermediate gray state means and how to fix the problem?
I have recently been experiencing the same problem.
When replying to an email or forwarding an email, all I get now is the message header in the reply email or forward email.
I do have the default set in Mail Preferences/Composing/Responding - "Quote the text of the original message and:
"When quoting text in replies and forwards: Include all of the original message"
But when I reply and more importantly Forward an email, I cannot send the text of the email NOR any attachments.
Help please

Here is the way I see the problem; When replying to an email, and/or otherwise including copy or attachments below my signature line, when the signature includes an image (instead of only text), some users don't get the image and the text below. In fact, even when there is nothing below, some recipients don't even get the image.
Please see if the common element is the type of signatures you have, (ie do they contain images). When I don't have an image in my signature line, the attachments and text below always go through.
I'm wondering if the intermittent problem here is something to do with the recipients email system cutting off the image and everything below...
