At first I didn't know how to answer. I didn't find anything related to fold method in my .vimrc. Fortunately, I keep copies of emails pertaining to problems I've encountered and solved with the help of people here and at vim_mac. Thank God!

Turns out I'm using Vlad Irnov's markdown folding script. https://gist.github.com/1035030 I'd completely forgotten about it, but it is what takes care of it for me.

Maybe this is something Vlad overlooked? Whatever, the workaround is pretty simple, so thanks again for that.
