Blank lines in text pasted from the clipboard into a message get deleted when the message is posted (at least with IE 7 and 8). Some use cases in which this is quite annoying:
- Copying text from some other Web page, e.g. a FAQ.
- Composing your message in another, more civilized text editor.

I'm thinking the difference is the window you are pasting it into? I'm using Firefox, btw, tho I don't think that is the difference. Also manually added < P > tags for my top and bottom lines.

Hmm, just did some more tests:
Other forum software, e.g. that used at ElementsVillage.com, handles pastes from IE 8 just fine.
Here's an example of pasting 3 lines of text separated by blank lines from Word 2007 into IE 8:
