User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0
Build ID: 20160315153207

Steps to reproduce:

Thunderbird version 38.7.0
Firefox version 45.0.1

With firefox go to page:     http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp
Copy all text from "Html table example" to "Definining html tables" --  copy including that table. 

Go to Thuderbird, open new mail, paste. ONLY text is pasted, and there is no table. 

Now use Internet Explorer, go to the same page, copy, paste to Thunderbird -- works ok. 


Then copy again from Firefox, go to Libre Office Calc, paste. Works ok. Copy table from Libre Office, paste in Thunderbird -- works OK. 


The problem appeared in 2016 March -- after upgrade. 







Actual results:

No table is pasted from Firefox to Thunderbird. 
Works ok if table is copied from Internet Explorer. 


Expected results:

Table should have been pasted as in previous versions.
