Bug Description

Binary package hint: kdepim

Example: email contains this text: "When you see him logon to IM, please stop by and make him feel welcome."

If I select it copy and paste, this text will be pasted:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<body>When you see him logon to IM, please stop by and make him feel welcome.</body>

This happens with both text/plain and text/html emails.

Thank goodness this isn't a show stopping bug but it surely gets annoying very fast. It's super frustrating that copy and paste has turned into copy/paste/cut/delete/paste.
