I tried to do something with Thunderbird today and was completely flummoxed. I had taken a screen shot with KSnapshot and placed the captured image in the paste buffer. I was not able to paste it into a note I was trying to send. I could paste it into OOWrite so I know I had it in my paste buffer. I triple checked that I was composing an HTML formatted note, and was. I tried <ctrl-c><ctrl-v>, <ctrl-ins><shift-ins>, right click copy/paste and many combinations of the above; no cheese down any hole.
Am I missing something or is this a known limitation?
