319151 - [RFE] Context menu should allow one to copy email address

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 96968

(Thunderbird :: Address Book, enhancement)

Description

[Robert Rothenberg]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 1.5 (X11/20051025)

When I select a card in the address book and open the context menu over an email address (right-click), I do not get the option to copy the email address.

Whether I right-click on the address in the list of cards in the address book, or whether I right-click on the address in the actual card.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open address book from within Thunderbird
2. Select an address book (e.g. Personal Address Book)
3. In the list of cards, right-click over an email address
4. Notice there's no option to copy address
5. In the card for that contact, right-click over the email address
6. Also notice no option to copy address
7. Try to select the address to copy it: one is unable to do it


Actual Results:  
One cannot copy an email address without opening the card to edit it.

Expected Results:  
An option to copy the email address.

note bug 96968 does not ask for #3 in your list, i.e. context menu copy, so might not fix what your summary asks for.
