I pointed this out to Andy in an earlier post. Ctrl-A is simply 'select
all'. It will also expand the ellipsis. If you select all and start typing,
your reply will overwrite everything. If you press the down-arrow cursor
key, the cursor will move to the bottom of the message.
If you simply wish to expand the ellipsis without clicking anything, press
Ctrl-Shift-A. This is the opposite of select all (ie. nothing).
