Please tell us how wide vim's window is, and what textwidth is set to:

:set co? tw?

I take it that the text "If the last char of a word in on the margin, then autoflow wraps that" was what you typed. If I set tw=60, and type the text, you seem to be expecting vim to know that the word you want is "wraps" and insert a space by itself; you should just type the space that comes at the end of the word like you typed all the others on the line. Or did you type the space and it got swallowed?
