Hi Brian That's a novel use of E-Mail. Out of interest though, have you looked at Drafts?
It is a app with no need to ave and no folder structure. When you open the app you are placed in a text area and you can type away to your heart's content. You can exit the app and your draft will be saved for searching later. It has a wealth of sharing options including E-Mail.
