How-To Use Email to Send Information to Your Evernote Notebook

Evernote is a great tool for productivity and with an amazing price of $0.00 for the standard version, it’s easily in my top 10 of favorite freeware apps.  Although we introduced Evernote to you a few months back, today I will show you how to easily integrate Evernote into your daily routine using email to send bookmarks, reminders, images or To-Do’s directly to your Evernote Notebook.

All Evernote accounts are assigned an email address.  To get your email address open Evernote and Click Tools, Account Info

Right-Click your Evernote email address and Click Copy

From here it’s pretty simple.  Anything you send this email address will be uploaded into your Default Evernote Notebook unless you use an @ symbol to specify the folder you want it delivered to. Example: Get the Milk! @todo

Because the email address isn’t the easiest to remember, I recommend you create a new Contact in your email account and give it a name like “Evernote Email” so you can easily find it on your mobile or Email Client.

Once the contact is created, my email client will auto-fill the ugly email address for me by just typing in Evernote.

groovyTip – Tags

• Tags are a powerful feature of finding your notes inside Evernote.  To assign a tag, just add a # followed by a tag in the subject line of your email.
• Example: Don’t forget the milk!  @todo #milk #groceries
