Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 437679

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Michel Wyraz]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/27.0.1453.110 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

- Happens on Windows
- Receive a simple mail (plain text) containing texte with multiple whitespaces/newlines
- copy one word that is the last on it's line (followed by newline and some other lines)
- paste it somewhere

Example Text:

Hey, the new Password is XXXXX
Regards.

-> Doubleklick XXXXX to select and Strg+C to copy


Actual results:

The Clipboard contains "XXXXX " (with trailing whitespace)

If you copied a password from the mail it won't work because of the whitespace.


Expected results:

The Clipboard should contain "XXXXX" (without trailing whitespace)

Thanks for the report, that bug unfortunately has been around for a while.
