152801 - can't highlighting and copy fields in message headers

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 61497

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Adrian Marsh]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530
BuildID:    2002053012

I can't highlight any of the text within the fields of the headers for copying
to the clipboard. I can select/right click on email addresses, but 'Subject'
text and date fields etc cannot be selected.

Workaround is to save message locally, open in notepad and select/copy, but this
is a v. time consuming job for a simple function.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. OPen Mail
2. Select an email
3. Try to copy subject text to clipboard.

Actual Results:  Nothing appears in clipboard

Expected Results:  Highlighted text as I select it, and then allow right-click
-> Copy or CTRL-C to copy text.

A slightly faster workaround is to use the message source with CTRL+U and then
copy the text.
