It's really not the fault of AW. It's simply the way that ubb works.
This, for example is how your letter should look in order to display with italics.

Of course, there should not be a space in the ending tags. I used a space so that the ubb would not work.

Also, don't use the return while typing the paragraphs...Just type to the end of the paragraph without hitting return. Add the closing tag and then, hit return.

I think not hitting the enter key is the main thing. I had not realized that would turn of the bold and italics function till you posted it.

Since there's no search facility here, I can't point out the post from several weeks ago - also USPS related where all I had to do was type an "i" at the start and and "/i" at the end, and muliple paragraphs of pasted text were italicized.
