Copy & Paste in Yahoo! Emails?

Didn't know where else to post this, and Yahoo!'s "help" is no help at all.

Anyway, I wrote a long email to a friend, and now want to edit it to send most of the text to someone else. It seems I can copy the text (to Notepad, Word, etc.) but can't paste it into the Yahoo! text box. Is there a way to do this, or do I need to retype the whole thing?

Thanks,

Richard

    In my wife's Yahoo mail, copied a short (8 lines) e-mail and tried to paste it in the compose box. It took about 3-5 seconds but it did appear.

    Thanks for the reply, chuket. I guess I should have mentioned that the problem seems to be that when I right-click in the Compose box, a Paste option doesn't even appear in the context menu. (It's not greyed out; it's simply not there at all.)

    I just discovered, though, that Ctrl-v will paste the message. :) Strange, yes?

    Thanks,

    Richard
