Default Copying to a text field in Contacts loses formatting

In Outlook 2003 SP2, I have a user who wants to copy and paste several email
addresses from her To: field into the text field on a new contact. She wants
to take an address like,

Peter Adams

And copy it but it loses it's settings.

She has several addresses and wants to create a contact list called, for
example, 'South Shore Insurance Agents'. On the contacts panel is a rather
large field for typing in notes. She wants to copy several addresses with
the FQDNs (fully qualified domain names) to the text field, however, when she
does copy the addresses into the text field of the contact, they lose the
domain name and in the example above, she would get, in plain text:

peter adams

This strips it of it's FQDN. Is there any thing you can think of that might
take the copy (as it would appear in the To: field) and copy it over to the
Text field on the contact without losing the formatting?

Thank you in advance
