Evernote Emailing now supports Tagging

Vaibhav — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 09:54:40 PDT

Evernote, a very useful note taking application which allows you to send important emails (or notes) directly to your evernote account by sending the emails to your special evernote email id (An evernote email id is an email id unique to your evernote account. Emails sent to this account are saved as notes into your Evernote notebook).

Until recently, if you ever sent a email to your special Evernote email address, you couldn’t send the note to a particular notebook and also the feature to attach tags to the note was missing. However, now, Evernote has added a very cool (and much wanted) feature which allows you to send a note to specific notebook and also attach tags to the note.

Below are the steps required to send a email note to a specific notebook and also add tags to the note.

1.) First you need to identify your special Evernote email address. The address is located under Account Info in the desktop versions of Evernote, under Settings in Evernote Web, and in the Sync tab of Evernote for iPhone.

2.) Next, try emailing something into Evernote. In the subject line of your email, write the title of the note as you want it to appear in your account. In the same subject line, add one or both of the following:

Use @ for notebooks: Use an @ symbol followed by the name of your destination notebook.

Use # for tags: Use a # symbol followed by the tag or tags you wish to assign. You can have multiple tags just make sure each one starts with an #

For example, Subject: Trip to Florida @travel #expense report

Would create a note titled Trip to Florida in my travel notebook, tagged with expense report.

Notes on this feature

This functionality only works for existing notebooks and tags.
At this time, you cannot create new notebooks or tags with this feature.
In the subject line, always put the note title first, then add any notebooks or tags.
This feature will not work for notebook names that contain an ‘@’ or a ‘#’, and it will not work for tags that contain a ‘#’ in their name.

Personally, i always wanted this specific feature. Believe me, with this Evernote just got a little more productive.
