This is whatI used to do for things like city newsletters.
1. Author it in notepad
2. Paste into a yahoo chat window in sections
3. Paste from yahoo into the mail screen. (after making the key mappings in swg options)
4. Send out the newsletter
I'd also recommend something like a basic clap macro so you dont get considered afk if you are ever writing a newsletter directly in swg e-mail.
Adios,
Tucco

If you use default keys like ctrl-v for map, use something like ctrl-alt-c for copy etc.
omg, thanks so much. as i went through typing the email every so far i'd copy and paste it to a new one to send to myself so if i lost connection again i could continue. kudos to you

I have my copy/cut/paste remapped, but it won't work for email. It only works in the chat screen. I removed alt as the mouse change and use alt/c for copy, alt/x for cut and alt/v for paste. My mouse/curser change is on the mouse third button now. Could this be why?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was in the middle...erm end of my City newsletter and lost connection. Is there a way to copy and paste in game? This is not the first time I've had this happen to me. SWG is really working a serious nerve with that. How does any one get anything done without getting kicked off the game. And it's not from lack of movement as I have a sit/stand Macro in place.
Please Please help me with this. I can't do it anymore. and it's driving me mad.
