Sending notes to Evernote via e-mail has become more convenient

One way to add information to your account is to send a note to Evernote’s personal e-mail address. Today we want to talk about the improvement of this functionality, allowing you to specify the notebook and labels for the created note.

How it works

First, remember or find your Evernote inbox. It looks something like this:.12345 @ m.evernote.com. The address can be found in the menu "Tools> About Account" in versions for computers, in the "Settings" of the web interface, as well as on the "Synchronization" tab in Evernote for iPhone. It makes sense to add it to your address book or contact list.

Now try sending something to Evernote. In the subject line of the letter write the name of the note. And now the most important thing: in the subject of the letter, it became possible to indicate the notebook to which you want to send a note, and a list of labels:

• to specify a notepad, use the @ symbol , followed by the name of an existing notepad;
• in order to set a label, use the symbol # , followed by the name of an existing label; You can specify several labels; in this case, each label must be preceded by the # symbol .

Example: a letter with the subject Trip to Tyumen @ Business trips # an electronic ticket will create a note entitled “Travel to Tyumen” in the notebook “Business trips” and marked “electronic ticket”.

Features

• this feature only works for existing notebooks and labels;
• you cannot currently create new notebooks or tags using this function;
• in the subject of the letter you always need to first indicate the name of the note, and then add any notebooks and tags;
• this feature does not work for notebooks whose names contain the characters "@" or "#", and labels with the symbol "#" in the title.

Changing your email address

The numbers in your incoming email address are randomly generated to protect you from spam. If you want to change the address to a new one, click on the “Re-create email address” button in the “Settings” of the web client. After that, do not forget to update the entry in your address book.
