Email unformats when sent --copy and paste doesnt work correctly

billykaos · 03-07-2006, 12:41 PM

Hello All thanx in advance for the help!!!

I am running Windows XP Pro and Firefox 1.5.something and I use yahoo as my email

when i compose an email using the return key to keep the text within the window it is fine. when i use control v to paste text into the email it also stays withing the email compose box.

however when i send the email to somebody it becomes a huge long unbroken string of text
so that an email that is say 60 lines vertically is now 4 lines vertically???

also i cant use my right click to copy and paste all the time
sometines i can (like in IMFrame) but sometimes I cant like in email--but the copy part works fine except when i right click in the body of my email message to paste i get a screen that has the last 2 options as view source and view page info instead of the one with a paste option i can get around this by using shift V to paste it but its like the computert is stuck somewhere.

also if i try and use IE instead of firefox to read my email if i click a link on an email it shuts the page down completely???

HELP???

did i post in the right place at least?

is this an XP or browser or ??? problem
thx BIlly
