Yes, you can move an email from Mail to Notes. It’s a bit convoluted, though: Open the email in the Mail app, tap the Reply/Forward button, select Print, and then use the Share icon to select Notes (source: Google AI.)


The other way I know is to drag the email to start a drag and drop operation, then open Notes and a new note, and drop the email link. In practice, this doesn’t work the 1st time around. I need to repeat the procedure a 2nd time to make it work. The result is just a link to the email.


The first technique gives you a preview of the email in Notes, which I find more appealing.
