Ha, yes this works for me too. Also works fine copying to gmail. Unfortunately the format is not preserved copying from gmail to the next app. Need a 3rd app to go betweeen.
evernote > 3rd mystery rich text preserving app > other apps
But it's too annoying. Maybe best solution is to stop using rich text. Instead of the bullet points, numbered lists, italics, etc.
Just use:
*one
*two
*three
1.one
2.two
3.three
this is an *important* word
