(Archived) Evernote and Entourage

I know there is a new MS Office email client (outlook) for Mac instead of Entourage, but from what I hear there are many similarities. Hoping that much of the functionality is the same on the back end, I am wondering this as a entourage user:

1. One big feature that evernote lacks is a robust email client. While I realize that is purposeful, and evernote does what it does extremely well, I am surprised there are not more sources and applescripts to interface a email client with evernote. (I am familiar with Veritrope, which does have some great scripts)

2. What I would like to see and maybe someone has already written this script, is a way for categories and projects in entourage to sync with tags and notebooks respectively. The workflow would be: label an email with a category and project and have it auto sync to evernote....or possibly autofoward to evernote with the tag and notebook assigned.

3. It would also be nice to have tasks/todos sync into evernote and much like egretlist have it recognize a checkbox in entourage and sync it to evernote.

Seems like email is one of the main data capture points for most users of evernote and deeper integration capabilities into a robust email client seems to be paramount for a workflow. Suggestions/Comments

Thx

I'm an Apple Mail user so I can't comment on the differences between Outlook for Mac and Entourage - but what I would say is that given that Entourage is now 'old' product it would seem most likely that any integration would be with Outlook.

I did look at Outlook, but it made my eyes bleed and my soul died a little.

I hear ya, I used Apple Mail for quite some time, but for business use, it lacks many features (also many I hope to achieve with a deeper integration with evernote). What I am hoping is Entourage and the New Outlook are similar enough that small tweaks to any scripting can facilitate both.

I'm a new Entourage user and I use Evernote quite a bit for work. I don't care so much about automatic synchronization of emails to notes since I just forward the emails that I want to keep via email.

What I do need is the integration to be able to email a note from Evernote via Entourage to my corporate contacts. Is there any clean way to do this? It seems to depend on my system address book and Mail.app

Emails from Evernote are sent from the address that you have registered with Evernote - this isn't currently configurable to allow you to send from another address.

Yeah, I get that.

I'm just expressing the desire for some integration with the system's default email client for sending. Maybe I'll look into scripting it.

Thx
