Hi Alain,

   This differ from the behaviour that I'm describing since you are 
not using my commands, but the standard MailMate paste action (Cmd+v). 
To use mine you should select it from the menubar at "Command -> Paste 
(Extra) -> select the action that you want) or use the shortcut that I 
set (Cmd+Alt+Shift+V pr Cmd+Ctrl+Shift+V), but the shortcuts doesn't 
seem to work great on my side, so you may prefer to set them from the 
macOS standard shortcuts preference or change them in the Bundle

Best,
