Bug Description

Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

if you want to send the details of some contact to a third person in an email thunderbird forces you to open the addressbook, find the contact, edit the contact and manually copy each entry into the email body (name, phone, address, email)...

it would be nice to have "attach contact card" as an option on attach in the composition window...

Confirming in Thunderbird version 1.0.2 (20050317). There is no obvious way to
either move, copy, paste, insert contact information into a new email address
(let alone another application via copy/paste mechanism).
