Should the resume and cover letter be included as attachments?
Or is it better to copy and paste these documents into the text of the E-Mail?

Ask them what format they would like it in or send 2 versions;
Most preferably word and or pdf.
This benefits you as well. You can control the look of the resume instead of ugly text email format.
Good luck.

Usually very picky companies will tell you upfront which format you should use. The cover letter should always be in the text of the email. Add a line and cut and paste a plain text resume at the bottom and then also attach the resume. That way you have given them the option.
Hope this helps!

As text in the email-- most people fear viruses and whatnot in attachments.
*UNLESS they have a specific protocol outlined in their ad which says to do otherwise.
