[MlMt] Again: Big problem with copying innocent XML snippet from a message to the clipboard

[leo]

Hi all

(_Posted this message a week earlier, but with an unfortunate typo which 
might have moved it for many people to the Spam folder…_)

 From an Outlook client I have been sent an email with the following 
command line snippet:


**curl "http://localhost:8080/solr/winfried/update?commit=true" -H 
"Content-Type: text/xml" -d 
'<delete><query>store:”top"</query></delete>’**

(Written in Outlook not as code and not in bold, but as normal body 
text).

When I received this in MailMate I _saw_ the same text line as above in 
the message view, but when I _copied_ the line to the clipboard and 
subsequently pasted it into a text editor I got only:

**curl "http://localhost:8080/solr/winfried/update?commit=true" -H 
"Content-Type: text/xml" -d_ 'store:”top”’**

So the “delete” tags somehow got ‘executed’... This was 
reproducible. I think it is related to quoting text in the HTML portion 
of a message: The render code in the message view seems to do the right 
thing, but the copy code doesn’t…

It took me a little while to find: It is pretty unexpected (and scary) 
that you get something a bit different out of the copy-paste then you 
see in the message….

I’d say this is a severe little bug, or do I do something wrong?

Happy emailing
Leo
