    Quote this post, then select the '[/quote]'-bit at the end. Now right click to copy...

    Yes it is. You can select it fine, but the moment you right-click to copy it, the selection reduces to 'QUOTE' instead of '[/QUOTE]'.

    I know how that works, but I'm not about to change my current methods (which I find more convenient) for a new browser, when I can just go back to using Firefox.
    I have no issues at all with Firefox, I'm just trying out Chrome.

    I am also using google mail as an alternative to outlook.

    I can't understand why they have decided to reject folders.
    Folders let you group your past emails into categories, so that you can reference them later. As similar emails have similar headers, you can do this by selecting a bunch of them and transferring them to the folder they belong to.
    In google mail, you have to individually flag each email.


    Why be different just to make a step backwards?
