How can I copy and paste an email in Confluence from Gmail without losing the format?

Question

I want to copy and paste an email from GMAIL, but when I do it, it doesn t look the same, it loses the colors, shapes etc..  How can I copy and paste an email in Confluence from Gmail without losing the format? I need to copy and paste easily, if it is a software for group working it should not be difficult

I agree.  When working offline and writing the text in a mail program or word pad  and then copying it into Confluence loses the formatting and sometimes even the line order.

The reverse,writing it in confluence and copying to a mail program does the same (not an Atlassian problem) but could be helped by the Share with external user that has been on the Community site for a while Share-confluence-page-to-non-user

thanks

I also have this issue, when copying email from MS Outlook. The colours are lost, and some of the conversation sequence is re-arranged.
