    I find the Firefox "Copy plain text" extension to be useful in pulling
    text from web sites, but it doesn't work with Thunderbird. Is there a
    Thunderbird analog for this extension? If not, how difficult would it be
    to mke the current extension also work in Firefox?

    I'm sorry to be dense, but how would you want this to work in TB?

    I agree. Its a bind trying to copy text from html emails.

    Hm, does View>>Message Body as>>Plain Text work for you?

    It should, in most cases display the message as plain text, and allow
    you to copy.

    Hmmm! Yes it does but I was unaware of that pathway - until now.
