It may depend on the indentation mechanism being used. That is, on
whether you're using 'autoindent', 'cindent', 'indentexpr' or
something else. For example, it works fine when I edit C code (with
'cindent' set) but not in this e-mail (with only 'autoindent' set).
If I indent this paragraph, then try to add a line below the last
line by typing S or cc on that empty line, the new line starts in
column 1. I don't know why that is.
