Emails as unique object type
planned

It would be great to have the option for forwarded emails to be saved to their own unique object type in addition to the current functionality of appending them to the Daily Notes.

Emails forwarded to Capacities

Right now when i forward an email a "poor" version lands in my Daily note. There are no images, just a bunch of links.
I had hoped that a full version of the email (HTML images etc) would fall into their own "object type" similar to pdfs and images.
Are there any plans to do that?
Here is a very normal use case. (1) My upcoming vacation. I want to create a "project" (trip) to collect all these in one place. I want to forward emails from my airline itinerary, I want to forward, my cruise info, my excursion info, my HOTEL reservations. ALL of these come via email.
Another use case (2) My business meeting. Again, I want to collect all these in one place (project). Hotel reservations, plane itinerary, the emails from my boss and co-worker about the upcoming business meeting. All these come by email.

This is planned. Can't give you an ETA yet though.

Michael von Hohnhorst Having Email as a separate object type just like tweets will be of great help. All those mails I am forwarding to Capacities would not only get added to Daily Notes but neatly get organized in a Email object with metadata, links extracted and maybe in future AI can also auto-add actionable items to them.

André Hake I am also looking forward to this! I have a directory with almost 700 stories in it. I wish I could add this folder into Capacities, and break these hundreds of docs into individual projects, or at least have links to the docs in Capacities. I'm just beginning here, and made my first object today.
