Edit Tables for MacMail

Hi

I am used to paste tables created in Numbers and paste into MacMail. Is there any method to add/remove columns and rows, and/or adjust column and rows width/height?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15

I was previously using Outlook on my PC and I was able to do these things when pasting from Excel or Word.

Apple should think on this as most of the professional emails needs these types of features.

Outlook was designed, like Word and Excel to be used in Professional corporate environments and is based on decades of corporate requirements feedback. Apple is doing exactly what it wants to do with Mail, Pages, and Numbers, which are not clones of Microsoft coding efforts. See dialabrain's post, and link for feedback.

No. Any adjustments would have to be done in Numbers then re-pasted.

Mac Mail is not a word processor, or spreadsheet application, so do not expect to find those built-in Mail features available when pasting content from those types of sources.

Yes off course but this is not convenient most of time. For example if I have a big table and I want to remove unnecessary columns, I need to make changes in my original Numbers file.
