I am weighing in a little late on this topic. I use the new e-mail template exactly as it is, and am delighted with it. I do source each e-mail separately, cutting and pasting the content into the text tab. I have made an exception in a case where I have had ongoing e-mail discussion with

I don't use the Source Writer Templates at all, so far. But in my sources I put a Master Source for each person whose email I keep. All their individual emails are printed out in one continuous pdf. (To back up: I send any email I'm keeping to EverNote using the EverNote clipper button,
