Subject: Copying addresses from text

How can I copy an address that is part of the text (but not in the return
address header) of one message and then insert this address into the 
"to:" header of a new message I wish to compose and send? 

 ^K/^U does not work.

I find that ^K/^U does indeed work, used the right way. What I would do 
is to 
a) reply including text
b) edit the line in the text so that only the email address is in the line
(alternatively use ^^ and arrows to just highlight the bit you want) 
c) ^K the cuts just the address, and ^U will instert just that
d) tidy up the message (remove included text and subject if not wanted).

Or if you are in Windows, either using a Windows comm program or a
Windows telnet, you can use Windows' cut and past functions to 
do this.

Or even in OS/2!

And another thing about OS/2, you can do this under OS/2 whether you are 
using a PM (GUI) terminal emulator, or a character-based emulator.
