Copy/Paste of fonts/colors doesn't work

[lindafine]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Power PC
Email Client: pop

For example, I want to copy and paste a message written in bold, italic, 24 font, and blue. When pasting, the message resorts to the default setting, which includes none of those. I assure you I know how to copy and paste, so that's not the problem.

Any suggestions?

Thanks very much.

I changes my setttings from text to HTML and it correct the problem for me. Emails were coming in with font attributes but my forwards and sends were going out as text.....only downer is you can loose table formats....a bug with Entourage that I hope they fix soon...

Entourage HTML capabilities are limited. You could try pasting into Word and
use send as email. For other options see this page:
