It's a bug in some versions of OE.  If I remember correctly, it can be fixed
by choosing Include message in reply (Tools | Options | Send).

It seems to be working!
She just got home from work and she clicked include original message in the reply.
She said she couldn't get to the Wetern iso option, for some reason.
She said it wouldn't let her type it in (and I'm thinking no drop down?)
But it's working!
We can't beleive it. We had been stumped for about 2 months.
We think it's going to "stop working" again, but maybe it won't.
Thanks!
