Default How to save viewed emails?

Is there a way to copy or move an entire email with all its links to my SD card or another place on my Touch? I lost some sensitive emails recently because I could not synch them and save them before I performed a hard reset. I have tried to copy the body of the emails and save them in Notes, but the links don't save.

If you change the account type to IMAP instead of POP3 the messages will stay on the server, so you can always have the original.
I left my witty signature at home.

imap is only a good idea if you have lots of email space on the server.

.. and imap is good if you send emails from different locations (home, work, mobile, etc) and you want to keep your replies/conversations together. that's mainly what it's for, not as a "backup" solution. you'll just waste a lot of email space if you use imap for the wrong purpose.

my solution would be to create a separate email folder and move the emails into this folder and archive, compress, backup..
