Outlook should allow cut and paste when creating message rules.

[Guest]

When creating rules to filter out junk mail, the ability to cut-and-paste
from the message body would be EXTREMELY helpful. Currently, I have to
memorize the EXACT text (which can be near impossible when non-alphnumeric
characters are used) or write down the EXACT wording in the message and then
type it into the message rule wizard. By cutting and pasting, time would be
saved and accuracy of the rule would be enhanced.

Is there a way to actually cut-and-paste the text from junk-mail?

Cut-and-paste does work, provided you use the Ctrl-C (or Ctrl-X)/Ctrl-V
approach.
