i noticed this a long time ago, but never thought much about it. when you right click on an email link and tell it to "copy shortcut", it copies the mailto: part. i think it would be a lot more useful to everybody if it just copied the email address... i always have to manually delete the mailto: stuff :( i know i can just ctrl-c, but i like right clicking better :p

anyways.

Ditto.

There's a reason why it's called "Copy Shortcut". It copies the hyperlink. :p

u should use Mozilla. When you click on an email address you get 2 choices:
copy Email address
copy link Location
