Every time I copy and paste from Word or Notepad into my email message box, all formatting is lost and everything runs together. This is making my papers one big jumble of words. Which radio  button is supposed to be used at the bottom of the box? Smart, plain, or HTML? Copying from Word into notepad used to keep everything in pretty good order, but not now.

The only truly foolproof ways to prevent this from happening would be to add an attachment to your message and send your document as either a Word file or even a PDF if you can create one.  Anytime you past in to a textbox on the web, you will lose some formatting.  Smart formatting should give you the best option, but again, if you can attach your file, that would be the best way to do this.
