Evernote uses a custom email address to route whatever media, link or text you want to send, to the specific notebook you select in your email subject. This is one of my favorite uses of email.
You are given a unique email address that is linked to your account and defaults to your default notebook.
The formatting of the email subject lets you choose any notebook as the destination for your email. You can also create a new notebook by simply adding a new notebook name after the "@" symbol.
You can add in hashtags to the email subject, after @notebook. These tags are included in the note and immediately searchable.
Simply add #planning or whatever existing tag you find useful. You can also create a brand new tag straight from email.
Using “!” then the full date and you can activate reminders.
Does anyone have any other apps or workflows that use this type of content-addressing?
Is that an accurate description for what this is? a content addressable macro?
I'd love it if Roam had a similar feature for emailing content into a specific block.
I found this short blog post that outlines this email feature if anyone is interested in checking it out :
