Mail to Spaces

How may I transfer, or rather, copy an email from Mail to one of my Spaces?

You can only forward messages in Spaces to your Gmail inbox, but not the other way around. You could use copy & paste, but that's probably not very elegant.

«...but that's probably not very elegant.»
You're right. If the original email contains a  table list (as it is in our case), copy & paste does not retain the exact format.

What is the purpose of wanting to copy an email to a Space?

[danlieberman]

if you use spaces to act as a project central point like i do, then its helpful to see everything related to that project.  in fact, i wish i could have links as well.  or have google keep integrated

I can see where that feature might be handy occasionally, to copy email content to a Spaces conversation, but the email envelope and contents are private to your account, so even a link would not be helpful.

That said, if the people in the Space are also in a Group -- you can get a link to a Group message and post it in the Spaces conversation.

For an individual message, I'd print the email to PDF and then share in the Space that way. For sending messages automatically, I'm seeing recommendations for Zapier - haven't tried it myself.
