Is there perhaps an option in Word to copy as text? My version of Word
has some "copy as..." options.

I'm pretty sure that only happens because Word puts a png on the
pasteboard as an alternative to the text. I guess that's a feature,
but it's a bit weird...
(Whereas if I copy text from
TextEdit, it pastes into a message correctly.) If I paste text from
Word as quoted text, with command-option-V, it does paste as text;
but then I have to un-quote and reflow it.
I know Word is the devil, but it's the unavoidable devil. How can I
paste text from it into a message I'm composing? Or is this another
in-progress feature/issue?
It's not a known issue, but it might be tricky to fix without breaking
something else. I think the best is probably to add an explicit
shortcut for pasting as text allowing the user to force MailMate to
pick the text alternative. That would likely be ⌥⇧⌘V. I'll make
a note of that.
