yes... it's been an issue for quite some time.

I generally get my cursor at the bottom most point inside the containing
box and start deleting stuff I don't want but of course that is a
hassle.

The other options are to change the format to HTML, delete the crap you
want out, and then change it back to plain text or copy and paste into a
regular (non-html) text editor and copy it again from there and paste it
back into Evolution.

No really simple solutions I am afraid to relate.

I'm beginning to dislike most everything Yahoo these days.
