Thanks, Werner.  My default reply template was indeed set with the two blank 
lines and the cursor at the top.  But putting your incantation in instead has 
made no difference.  I have also put it in as a custom template, but still 
cannot persuade KMail composer to use it.

Of, well - I have clearly badly upset the gremlins. :-(

I have again just left the two blank lines.  Hopefully they again won't 
transmit.
