[Bug 308072] [NEW] Cannot copy Kopete text to Thunderbird.

[Nicholas A. Suppiah]

Public bug reported:

Problem:
During conversation with Kopete and Yahoo IM I tried to copy the sender's text into my Thunderbird 2 email message (I am trying to send an Email) using right click then copy then paste. Then I tried the Ctrl+c and Ctrl+v, Both methods does not work. Basically, I cant paste into Thunderbird 2 Email messages with normal paste. 

Appreciate if someone can confirm this.

Kopete can only do the following:
1. Copy from text that I sent in Kopete to Thunderbird email message (both methods above).
2. Copy from sender's text to OpenOffice.org 2.4.1
3. Copy from sender's text (Ctrl+c) to Thunderbird email message by right click then choose "Paste without formatting".
