Description

### Steps to reproduce

Triple click a message to select the text, it highlights the text only.

Paste the text from primary selection using M3, mouse wheel button pressed.
(This is not the same as pasting from clipboard, those are 2 different buffers)

It partially includes "Seen by", for example:

> Thank you!
> +15
> JGNC

("G", "N" and "C" are users without a personal avatar picture)

Copy&paste with ctrl+c ctrl+v works as expected.
