No, MailMate uses a so-called Webview to display emails and it does not 
support non-contiguous text selection (at least no as far as I know). 
Does this work for you elsewhere?

The Composer window does support it, but that is because it uses a class 
named NSTextView which is for text only (or simple rich text).

In theory, I could use an NSTextView to display non-HTML messages, but 
the best solution would be if Apple improved the Webview.
