How do I select all (text) of an email in Outlook 2007? (other then Ctrl+A)

right-click.

Click to expand...

With the message open:
Message tab, in the Find section Select, Select All

Without the message open (ie, in the reading pane):
Click at the beginning of the message, hold down the button and drag to the
bottom of the message.

Looks like there's a slight bug with the Edit - Select all menu option where
it never selects all the message, despite the fact that Control A does.

Click in the text, then Ctrl A to select all or drag to select text with the
cursor, then Ctrl+C or right click, copy.

If you have SP2 installed, Ctrl+Insert should copy too. (That's broken in
earlier builds).
