My wife has been using Evernote for a while now. When trying to transfer some notes from MarkSpace to Evernote for my wife I found that dragging and dropping the text files exported from MarkSpace Notes from Finder into Evernotes created notes with attachments, and not notes with the text content as I was after. Searching forums for a while now I still don't know if this is possible. it seems to be possible for very small files, a few bytes, but not for anything bigger. There does not seem to be an import function that imports anything other than Evernote's own format files... Am I missing something - importing a text file as a note seems to be incredibly basic functionality, especially for users moving from other apps?
Also, whilst registering myself for Evernote, the registration process was halted with a red exclamation mark against the user name, but with no description of the problem (only a note that it had to start and end with a letter or number (it did) and may contain other stuff. If the name was taken it did not state that, but the same name all lower case instead of with a couple of upper case letters worked. Two comments - very odd convention if upper case is not permitted, and if not perhaps this should be stated, and a more useful error message would be a good idea...

Any thoughts?
