[Bug 1021813] [NEW] Thunderbird places incorrect newlines when composing a reply using "reply above quote"

Fri Jul 6 16:49:48 UTC 2012

Public bug reported:

When I compose a reply to any message, the newlines placed around the
quote are incorrectly formatted. I am using "reply above the quote", and
I only get a single newline above the quote, but there's two newlines
below the quote. This means I always have to click around and press
"Enter" and "Delete" a few times to reformat every email reply I
compose.

I think this is a regression moving to Thunderbird 13.x. I see the issue
on both Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04.

I will try to add some screenshots to demonstrate.
