In most cases, putting just

set mouse=a

in your ~/.vimrc will "just work", so that you don't have to bother
with ":set paste" and ":set nopaste". Even when this doesn't seem
to work at first, the steps to get it to work are usually fairly
simple. In some cases, though, you may have to include a number of
tests in your ~/.vimrc, as ZyX has done.

In my experience, "set mouse=a" has always worked as long as I was
copying and pasting between local applications, all in Windows or
all in X (Unix). Where I've had difficulty has been in copying and
pasting between local and remote applications or between Windows and
X applications.
