HI, can someone help with such a problem - I have a rich text component which I want users to be able to send via email. Compose email button works fine but email recipient receives email with all markdown symbols. How can I keep markdown working in email body as is it should but not as symbols?

I think the compose email action does not support rich text formatting. If you want to convert it, you would either have to pass the rich text content through a webhook to Make/Integromat, then use an email module to send it (with HTML support), or maybe use Apps Script to do the same thing.
