Once text is selected, use control + c to copy to the clipboard, and control
+ v to paste the contents of the clipboard into another document.

You can use Shift-Tab from the body of the message to move into the header
field containing the address, then Route JAWS to PC (Insert+Numpad-Minus),
then read character-by-character with the JAWS cursor, then Numpad-Plus to
