eml file (the same sort of file you'd get dragging the message to the desktop for instance). To do this, I just drag the message into the note I already created using the above steps. Now, I do have a premium account, so I CAN attach the email message as an actual attachment if I really want to save it. It also puts a link in the Source field that lets me get back to the original email. This creates a new note containing all the text from the email message, as well as the subject, from, to, etc lines. I just highlight the message in the list of messages, hit Command+C for copy, then Shift+Command+V for the global paste to evernote command. Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you are all trying to do here, but I've been clipping emails into Evernote from Apple's Mail app without needing any sort of script for a while now. again, i'm just passing along a possibility. if someone wants to import everything, that's fine with me. i'd want to weed out a lot of the crud myself. maybe it is just me who doesn't want to store all of my emails. i don't want spam and other ***** turning up in search results of emails. it has been years since i did it from outlook on my windows machine. i think you just select them and export as txt files from thunderbird (again, this is assuming the files are on the servers to be downloaded). Others prefer to put only key, important email that you may need later into Evernote. Some people like to do this to be comprehensive, and thus they have only one place/app to search. Putting all of your email into Evernote is a personal choice. Then anytime you want to exclude these msg you can enter '-tag:email' You can assign the same tag (like 'email' for example) to them.

These email msg need not 'clutter' your Evernote account. If so, then the import will enter the msg text as Note text, and everything is indexed as normal. i wouldn't import them all, because it will just clutter up your accountĬan you select blocks of msg in Mac Mail and export as text files? i wouldn't import them in that format, because evernote will not be able to index them for searching.Ģ.
