in 2005090406 trunk Seamonkey i see a similar bug; i can't paste at the
beginning of a mailcompose window - there has to be "something" before what i
paste (character, space, linefeed..).

WinXP

To reproduce:

Open mailcompose
type "abc" on the first line
type "def" on the second line
copy "def" and place insertion point to before the "a" in abc
Try to paste.

Result: Nothing pastes.

Reproducible with SeaMonkey 1.0a and Mozilla 1.8b2/20050617 but WFM with Mozilla
1.8b2/20050616 (HTML mailcompose and Composer Normal View), Edit > Paste Without
Formatting seems to work.

there are numerous cut/paste bugs - isn't this a dup?
