Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a message like
hello
- world
  1. It is converted into markdown
  2. Avoid converting the dash into markdown list by using backslash
hello
\- world
  1. The dash is now treated as a symbol, however line break is removed

What happened?

Backslash that should be escaping dash as an active markdown character removes line break as well
obrazek

What did you expect?

New line should still be applied.

The only workaround is to use /plain or /html mode which is annoying because you always have to end up editing the message
if you don't realize this quirk
