That' a good point. I still don't think Neal sent the note though. We have seen most of the flashbacks up until Rumple absorbs Neal into himself so that he preserves his life. From these flashbacks Neal doesn't know what the WWotW has planned, therefore not knowing that Storybrooke will be brought back from another curse, so he wouldn't have known to send Hook the message to bring back Emma. Unless there is a flashback we haven't seen yet, with Rumple/Neal.
