Actually for users of version 6 and later, regular copy (which is equivalent to 
Copy As Input Text) is the best.  The regular copy function, among other things, 
tries to use an InputForm representation (where possible), preserves 
evaluatability, and cleanly wraps at 70 characters which should be fine for most 
email applications.

Copy As Plain Text preserves the appearance of what's onscreen which will not 
always be evaluatable (but sometimes may be a preferred choice like, for 
example, when you're copying the output of a TableForm or Grid).  Also, Copy As 
Plain Text does not linewrap for email, favoring only the formatting which is 
explicitly in the cell.

Of course, we continue to make improvements on the functionality, and remain
open to suggestions.

Sincerely,
