160993 - cut and paste from e-mail header does not work

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 61497

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Igor Furlan]

Can I reproduce it ?  Yes .. at any time

Steps to reproduce the bug ?

A) open the e-mail client
   (Window --> Mail & Newsgroups) or CTRL 2)
B) select one of the e-mails from the Inbox
C) click View --> Headers --> All  (or ALT V H A)
D) with mouse try to select/highlight any line from the header

Actual result:  IT DOES NOT WORK

Expected result: User should be able to select text from the header with the
                 mouse and paste it elsewhere

Yes, there is a WORKAROUND ( but very very very annoying)
- save the e-mail as a file  (File --> Save As --> File   or  CTRL S)
- open the file with text editor and then do select/highlight and paste

[[e-mail] (gone - use [e-mail] instead)]

an even easier workaround is to view the message source and do it from there.

yes...  but your workaround is still annoying :))
