I'm not aware of any problem with Thunderbird or any (semi-)decent mail

It may depend a great deal on the source program.
The original poster uses NinjaIDE and Thunderbird, and his code was
being persistently flattened when he copied/pasted. I believe I've
just tracked it down to an incompatibility between the two (which also
happens to extend to Ninja/Gmail.) I'm not sure how Google Groups
enters into it.
Your experiment with Notepad suggests that it is pasting "rich" text that may
be the issue. If you paste from the IDE into Notepad it works and then the text
from Notepad pastes ok into the others. I am imagining that Notepad is plain
fixed width text? Or just a better-handled formatting when handed to TBird or
Gmail/GGroups?
Debugging is not helped by the fact that for some things the GMail/GGroups HTML
looks ok but the associated plain text version that they generate and send is
usually awful.
