The only time I need to copy and paste is when I am editing and when I am editing I use my keyboard as well as my mouse. > > This is 2008 -- not 1974. > > We use the MOUSE with GUI's not ancient keystrokes -- and could quite easily > in the late, lamented Outlook Express. I use both--whichever is more convenient. Usually I only find the mouse useful for coarse movement and the keyboard more convenient for finer operations, including text selection and copying and pasting. > > Oh Those Halcyon Days With A Superb Piece Of Software -- OUTLOOK EXPRESS.

SP1? You don't get functionality changes in a service pack, especially changes to a UI.
