[Evolution] copy & paste oddness

[bg <bg fdi us>]

Ubuntu 16.04 Evo 3.18.5.2

This only showed up in the latest version - never a problem previously.

When I copy an email address into the buffer,  it refuses to paste in any of the address fields.

I find it difficult to believe that anyone could have conceived this as an enhancement,

so would have to conclude it is a bug. I have browsed several Evo sites and have found

no mention of it. 

I tested it again just now, and here turned up a curious phenomenon; I can place the cursor

squarely at the first character of the "Cc" field, visually verify that the cursor *is* there,

and when I click on "paste", the pasted string pops up at the point where the cursor

last resided before I placed it in the "Cc" box.  Not in the "Cc" box.

??

Is this perhaps a Gnome problem, rather than an Evo one? I ask because I assume cursor 

behaviour is more the rule of Gnome than Evo. ??

Thanks,

Brewster
