It seems that Evolution do not handle copy / paste from scalc correctly. In my observation the format of the file is not handled correctly.

1. If the body is marked to be 'Plain text' the information will be an attachment in format PNG.

2. If the body is marked to be 'HTML' the information is inserted as an image and cannot be edited.

3. Work around for making it editable is to use feature 'Paste Quotation' and then a new copy and paste.

Expected behavior would be attaching text to the line eventually as a table if the copy contains more than one cell.
