From the available options, select "Copy" from the drop-down list. 

Then, you'll be given the option to use your copy as either a New Email or a New Template. Give your copy a new name, and then select "Copy Email" to confirm.

Changing Email Types

Some Email Types can be used interchangeably. For example, if you create a Workflow Email and then decide to make a copy of it to use as a regular Marketing Email? Totally fine. 

But Form Confirmation Emails function a little different. These email types do not use the same settings and formatting that Workflow Emails and standard Marketing Emails. With this in mind, they cannot be copied and used for a different purpose. Likewise, it is not possible to copy a standard Marketing Email to use as a Form Confirmation Email.

If you choose to copy a Form Confirmation Email, your copy will also be a Form Confirmation Email.
