Efelante 0 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I try to change the first part of evernote email adress. In settings, I clicked reset button a couple of times and it only changes the numbers at the end but I'm not happy with how it looks like because of the first part because of personal reasons. Can any Evernote employee help me to update it? I think it's something users can't do because I spend hours to find out how I can resolve it and I couldn't. Link to comment

Because there are no spam filters and other features, the address should be only used by yourself to forward e-mails received to your EN account. So it is not really an issue, put it to the address book and name it however you want it to be named. For external use by others, you should use a public mail account, and send the mails to EN from there. This will protect the EN address from being spammed. 1 Link to comment

Oh I was thinking I can give it to people so they can send the notes directly to my evernote but this is a great suggestion. Link to comment
Level 5 Solution PinkElephant 5,574 Posted February 10, 2021 Level 5 Solution Share Posted February 10, 2021 Better to keep the account information closed. You can relatively easily change an e-mail-account at a provider, but the EN mail address is pretty fixed and linked to your account. Another way of setting up a link to specific persons (could be just one, or a group) is to open a shared notebook, and invite them there. If you grant them editing rights, a group of people can work jointly on notes in that shared notebook. It is a great collaboration tool, and everybody with access can see and contribute. Much better than sending e-Mails using this dreadful „send answer to all“ button. 2 Link to comment

If I make a shared note, the person I share will need to have an evernote account to view the note? Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 5,574 Posted February 11, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted February 11, 2021 If you create a link to the note, and send it, anybody with that link can open the note on a browser. No need for an EN account. If a longer collaboration is needed, probably on a whole shared notebook, it is better if everyone has an EN account (Basic will do in most cases). 1 Link to comment
