Hello Everyone, I am using KMail 1.13.5 from within Kontact 4.4.8. Also, I am running Fedora 13 and KDE 4.5.4. All of this is fully updated.
I don't know when this problem started, but when I copy something like this from any email in KMail: No. Why do you need the "full-install" DVD?
and paste it into any text editor, it comes out like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "DTD/xhtml1- strict.dtd"> <body>No. Why do you need the "full-install" DVD?</body>
If I want to copy and paste a tracking number for an item that I purchased online, it looks like this when I paste it:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "DTD/xhtml1- strict.dtd"> <body>9101128882300487354725</body>
In the above example, this is the procedure I followed: 1. Using my mouse, I select "9101128882300487354725" in the desired email. 2. Right click the mouse, and then select "Copy" 3. Then, I either do "Ctrl V" or "Right Click | Paste" 4. The result is always the same. I get the text that I selected, plus a whole lot HTML markup...
I have KMail set to compose and send emails in text only.
In my experiments so far, this only occurs when I copy FROM KMail. If I copy from any other application, and paste INTO KMail, it pastes correctly. Also, when I select and then copy "9101128882300487354725" FROM KMAIL, and then check my clipboard, it shows up in the undesired format:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "DTD/xhtml1- strict.dtd"> <body>9101128882300487354725</body>
As far as I know, I didn't change anything to cause this problem to occur. I do know that up until a few weeks ago, on this same system, if (from within KMail) I selected and copied something like "9101128882300487354725" and then pasted the result into any application, I would get this: "9101128882300487354725"
That is how it has always worked for me, and that is NOT how it's working for me now :(
Your help is greatly appreciated. Steven P. Ulrick

Word on the street is that this is fixed in kdepim-4.4.10, submitted for updates-testing now.

Hey Rex, Well, the word on the street appears to be correct :) I just updated kdepim from the kde-testing repo, and it does appear to be fixed.
Thank you very much to everyone involved in fixing this issue.
