This seems to be in Emacs 22 (Carbon) as well as Emacs 23 (NS).

This is nice because I can paste a large multiline block of text into the buffer and edit it before positioning my cursor at the end, and hitting return to submit it to the remote process. However, after submitting it, the text in the buffer that was submitted often becomes badly mangled -- large chunks of it seem to be dropped out, or pieces get rearranged somehow. It is not possible to cut&paste it any more since it is now irreparably changed (although the previously submitted text can be yanked back with M-p (creating a new block at the cursor location)).

However, in this case, C-l was able to restore the correct text (so perhaps this is a different problem -- display bug rather than the text in the buffer actually being munged as it is telnet windows).

bug#6058: 22 and 23: yanking unreliable in telnet-mode

[Stefan Kangas]

The below bug was reported 10 years ago.  Is this still an issue in a
modern version of Emacs, such as the recently released version 27.1?

Thanks in advance.

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
few months, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
