Android 3.1 and Apostrophe’s

Seems to be quite a serious problem with Android 3.1 and it playing nicely with apostrophes when replying to HTML formatted emails. I noticed it when i sent a reply to a colleague who replied back to me saying they didnt understand what I was saying… and rightly so because every word I used in the reply that had an apostrophe was mangled by the native Android mail client which promptly replaced all the apostrophe’s with “‘”.

Theres a few posts scattered around the web highlighting this but its worth paying a visit to this link and ‘starring’ the issue so it gets the Google devs attention!

You’ll find the option to ‘star’ and add your own comments to the issue at the bottom of that page.
