Cannot copy Kopete text to Thunderbird.

[Nicholas A. Suppiah]

Problem:
During conversation with Kopete and Yahoo IM I tried to copy the sender's text into my Thunderbird 2 email message (I am trying to send an Email) using right click then copy then paste. Then I tried the Ctrl+c and Ctrl+v, Both methods does not work. Basically, I cant paste into Thunderbird 2 Email messages with normal paste.

Appreciate if someone can confirm this.

Kopete can only do the following:
1. Copy from text that I sent in Kopete to Thunderbird email message (both methods above).
2. Copy from sender's text to OpenOffice.org 2.4.1
3. Copy from sender's text (Ctrl+c) to Thunderbird email message by right click then choose "Paste without formatting".

Hello Nicholas.
Thanks for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.

You made this bug report in 2008 regarding Thunderbird and there have been several versions of Thunderbird since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? Or, if it is still a problem, could you come to Launchpad and make a comment to that effect?

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.
