Can't copy text in email in Outlook Web Access in Nightly. Should I file a bug?

I updated to the latest nightly (15 or 14 June). For the last couple of days at least, in my two different Outlook Web Access email accounts, I have been unable to copy text when I am reading an email.

I searched on bugzilla and didn't see anything. Is this a known issue that has already been filed? I'd rather not waste anyone's time. I don't mind filing bugs if there isn't one yet. I searched for "can't copy text nightly email," and "outlook web access." the first gave me no results; the second set of terms gave me none that had anything to do with my problem.

FWIW, I'm posting this from FDE, from which I can copy text in OWA.

The problem is with Nightly? I've called the big guys to help you. Good luck.

There have been problems with the Copy because of format problems. Open your Word program. Copy, then paste to word. Then Copy from Word to where you want it placed.

You may want to hang out in the Nightly threads in http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=23 as Testers do not really hang out on this forum so much You will likely find users using Release or Beta here vs Aurora or Nightly.

You did not call anybody as all you did was add a tag that very few people search with.
