What issue do you have?

When I receive emails through my ...@m.joplincloud.com account as a note, the format is nice but it gives me some problems. For instance, I cannot create backlinks through the plugin, the links are not clickable, see screenshot. How to solve this?
Thanks!

I think it's just the plugin that doesn't support the rich text editor? You can probably make it work from the markdown editor

It has something to do with the format of the email-to-notes.
It looks like html?

The only way to make backlinks work is to change manually the markdown link from for instance

[2025-06-30](:/5da0fac7d1564a59b5e6d9fb24337820)

to

<a href="joplin://x-callback-url/openNote?id=5da0fac7d1564a59b5e6d9fb24337820">2025-06-30</a>

It works, but it is tedious to change the backlinks and the links work a lot slower on my Windows laptop. On my android the links are just as fast.

Any other solutions? Is there a way to change the format of the email-to-notes?
