I didn't mean to suggest that it is a problem with Mutt, but a Usenet
search was fruitless and I though someone here might have run into the
problem. 

Mutt is running in a KDE Konsole (which can I paste to), but Mutt is
calling XJed in another window (I don't know what it is -- xterm? --
or how to change it) and pasting does not work there from a KDE
Konsole or KDE Terminal or xterm window. However, if I start Mutt from
an xterm window or KDE Terminal window instead of a KDE Konsole
window, pasting into XJed when I'm composing a message works. So it
appears to be a problem with KDE Konsole not allowing pasting to a
spawned window. I guess a work-around is not to use Konsole for Mutt.

Thanks for the reply
