Never seen this before on any of the forums and I did do a search beforehand.

Today I created a note using the Notes app (the one that looks like a Sticky notepad). Did 1 at 8:00 am and another at 1:00 pm.

Got to my desk top computer and noticed that my iPhone sent the note as an email. It showed up in my inbox and the recipient was empty. Strange thing is, I never clicked the send email button.

Crazy.

Did you sync your phone after you created the note. In mail.app prefs, you can set notes to show in the inbox.
If that isn't it, you might check your mail settings in the phone and see if notes is selected in your Gmail. account.

That is it! Yes I had notes set to synch in my iPhone.

Thanks for pointing this out. I feel like such a noob.

Don't feel to bad, it took me a couple of days and some deleted notes before I figured out that you could go to prefs. in the Mac mail.app and select not to show notes in the inbox.:D

Mine had just started popping up too and that was the problem. Thanks.
