While creating or updating the Case Description field from the forwarded email copied from outlook, it removes the Sent, To and Subject line of the email body, which are important information to have in the case description. 

E.g. try to paste the below lines of Courier fonts in the Description field of the case and hit save.

Subject: Subject of the email

Hi  Jatin Chhantbar,

Before Save:

After Save

See the lines starting with Sent, To and Subject are not visible

Any solution we can see what is pasted after save?

However, if we remove all the angle braces (Less-than and Greater-than symbols) manually, and then save it will have everything as it is.

    The problem is in the Plugin, it has a code that is doing HtmlEncode, I need to rectify that plugin, thanks for your response.

    Hi Partner,

    I have tested it in my environment, I have not been in the same problem as you.

    After Saving it, it doesn’t change.

    Maybe you can check any workflow/flow or js in the case form to change description field.

    Or you can cacle rich text editor control in the description field to test again.
