Deluge/Plain Text/Rich Text Not Functioning

Formatting email submission so it appears correctly in Zoho
I've figured out how to submit records to my zoho application using email. These are emails I am forwarding. The problem is now formatting the email so it doesn't show up as garbage in Zoho.

It appears the submit data by email function reserves the colon (:) for identifying the fields that I'm using in the form. My work around is to replace

Copying of application blocked if quotes used in rich text field
Attempts to duplicate and copy the application from the home page failed, and so I saved the application as a script and tried uploading it into a new application.

Get input.ID on Stateless Form Submission
Concerning stateless forms: One thing that bugs me is that an ID number is generated after form data is submitted. This is an issue in my mind.

We cannot use a url link that has https://creator.zoho.com/admin/myapp/form-perma/newidea/&ID=212085000003178069 form because the ID is created after the fact. Rather, we are forced to create
