    If you say so.  But that command does *not* maintain paragraphs
    either, which is extremely important to me.

     I'm not sure I understand this, Marck.

     Ideally, TB would automatically format your pasted text in the same way as
     your normal default message format.  I don't know why it doesn't, but TB
     isn't alone in sharing this particular "quirk."

     ClickMate makes this "reformatting" virtually seamless, but it
     really shouldn't be necessary to have to use a third-party tool.
