Weird Copying of Text on New Version 1.14 (5852)

#2975

I installed the new version of MailMate when I was notified. Now when I copy text from a message and paste it into another app, it pastes it like this:

Original text in Email:

Harvey Finn - harveyfinn53@gmail.com

When pasted into another app:

Harvey Finn - [harveyfinn53@gmail.com](mailto:harveyfinn53@gmail.com)

How can I stop this from happening?

    I get a variant of this. I'll copy a UNIX path from an email that contains underscores and when I paste the underscores are escaped. This is pretty annoying as I have to fix the paths every time.

    It appears what's copied in both cases described is the actual markdown source instead of the text in the viewer.

    nall.

    I'm aware of various issues with copy/paste and hopefully it'll soon improve.
