Mail in Leopard now supports Notes. These do not sync to your iPhones Notes app, but can be synced to any folder you have on your IMAP email server.
- Create a note in Mail on your desktop.
- Control click on it in the list.
- Choose Move to or Copy to.
- Pick a folder in your IMAP account.
This puts the note on your server and shows up as an email from yourself on your iPhone. Any images included in the note will transfer as well. If you save the notes as rich text all the iPhone fonts will transfer, with the exception of Felt Marker. This gives you the ability to format your emails with fonts and text. Note that all these fonts will only show on Macs and iPhones. Use more conventional fonts for email to PCs. Unfortunately these messages retain a yellow background just like the note. This process is really not much different than transfering a note via drafts, except that you can add an image, use a white or different color background and the note can only be forwarded.
