You could try this plugin: http://ckeditor.com/addon/pastefromexcel

Hi Francis,

Thank you for your prompt response.

I installed plugin and activated the same in my current version of SOGo which is 3.2.0 where copy paste is not working.

I tried same installation and changes in config.js and build-config.js of ckeditor on my another SOGO version 3.1.5 where copy paste gives success. Compose window shows full table layouts.

So latest version 3.2.0 does not paste layout and earlier version 3.1.5 works fine. Is there anything that needs to be looked upon?

Did you use the same version of CKEditor on both installations (4.5.11 I presume)?

hi Francis,

I updated my older SOGo to newer 3.2.0 on another server. Updated / configured and activated pastefromexcel plugin. Restarted sogo / memcached / httpd services. Now this one works fine.

Another server which has same configs/sogo version and same pastefromexcel configs aren't working which seems strange. I tried restarting whole server but still I think browser or plugin is not coming into action some how.

Yes my ckeditor.js shows version:"4.5.11" on both servers.

I had to add plugin name in ckeditor.js just besides with pastefromword and pasting from excel started working. in compose box now I can paste table and its respective layout is showing.

However if I paste from excel and send email to someone, that email does not contain any data. Only blank emails are being received at receiver's end.

The same thing is happening for pasterfromword plugin where receiver's emails are showing blank if anything is copy pasted from word file into compose box.

Update to above issue.

If we paste any formatted table in compose box it pastes perfectly fine, however to send that layout in email we have to give one SPACE at the end of the email content or just write down anything after pasting from excel. Then only whole email gets displayed in receiver's mailbox as well as in SENT Folder of SOGo.

I also would like to know if I can maximize compose box to whole browser screen. Currently it is very small and facing issues when we need to look over or copy any content from other emails. If compose box can be maximized it will be very helpful.

For a problematic message, do you have any content when you look at the raw source? If so, can you attach the raw source to this ticket? Thanks!

Here is source button content: HTML EMAIL

I think on left side last 10th line shows Accept:"applciation/jason, text/plain, /". Isn't it have to be HTML if I am pasting excel and sending email from HTML composer?

hope this helps.
