The question is in the title. I am not able to type anything at the top of an e-mail that I am trying to forward. How do I fix this?

I would guess that expedia use iframes and tables that just don't workout well in Thunderbird.

Thanks for your suggestion but that isn't the problem. For example, if I tried to forward your e-mail, I can type above "original message" with no problem. However, when I try to forward some Expedia reservation confirmations, the cursor won't appear above "original message" and I can't type anything. Maybe the problem has something to do with Expedia's e-mails since I now realize they seem to be the only ones that I'm having this issue with.
