Moving regular text messages to email

I have an old iPhone (maybe an 8 or old SE). I receive text messages that I would like to either

  1. Move to another folder on the phone OR
  2. Move to email

Is there an easy way to do this? I'd really like it explained SIMPLY because I am not tech savy

Thank you

iPhone XR, iOS 17

Screenshot the text and email it to yourself, if you want to preserve the metadata, then purchase touch copy or imazing to export the data to pc or mac.
