[Bug 58215] Re: Evolution's compose mail window doesn't allow standard Linux copy from in any address fields

[rocifier]

I also experienced this, but it's not exactly as you say; I think I
narrowed down the inconsistencies... here's what I found:

Copying from the "reply-to:" field and pasting works anywhere and you
can paste as many times as you like.

Copying from the "to:", "cc:", and "bcc:" fields only paste _once_ back
in to their own field, and no where else. If you try to paste somewhere
else with the middle button, it won't do anything, and won't let you
paste the clipboard data anymore - it's like it's been erased, yet it
hasn't because the keyboard and menu commands always work.

Copying from the "subject:" and "post-to:" fields allow infinite pasting
outside of the subject field, but once you paste in the "subject:"
field, it won't paste anymore, anywhere. I.e. pasting only works once
within the subject field like the "to:" field except you can paste
elseware.

All the above work as expected (infinite pastes anywhere) using CTRL+C
and CTRL+V. The problem is only with the middle mouse button, and there
are definitely inconsistencies between the above fields in evolution and
other applications.

Can you confirm all of these Jim? Can anyone else please so we can set
this bug to confirmed. Cheers.
