    Thank you so much but unfortunately it won't help me. I cannot put extraneous stuff like that in the subject line when I email third parties. I have no problem emailing my mail to evernote, the problem only occurs when I try to bcc my evernote account and no amount of setting rules seems to work if I am to preserve the following info

    TO

    CC

    FROM

    DATE

    You could also put the @notebook name in your signature, and use that signature when you want to send email to evernote.  Create rule that looks for this in the body.

    Hope this helps.l

    Have a GREAT day!

  2. Just thought I might add to my much earlier response.

    We put into the subject line @orders email which is one of my notebooks

    Then we use a rule in outlook, that automatically forwards any email sent with this in the subject line.

    We then get all the information from the email into the note.  We then, copy or merge or move the note where it needs to be.

    You could do this with any notebook in your account and set separate rules for different notebooks if necessary.

    Hope this helps someone.

    Have a GREAT day!

  3. There are probably few features that would be considered critical enough to stop using evernote, except maybe syncing and lost data.

    All other features will add up to either continuing to use the program in spite of the issues, or not using the program because of the issues.

    It is more of a cumulative effect than a single effect.  Most likely true of windows users, of course there would be exceptions for people that tried to use evernote for a specific purpose for which it does not work.

    This is critical to my not using certain features, I will not use the doc feature, will not use to take pictures of products to be printed later, will not take pics of serial and model number plates to keep in evernote.

  4.  

    Why is this taking so long to update on windows? Are windows users not a valuable asset to your company's success??

    Of course they are. However, not being able to resize an image directly in a note is apparently not a critical feature for all Windows users.

     

    Not really certain to whom that is apparent.  It certainly is not apparent to me.

    The feature where you can take a picture of a receipt in the docs option, upon printing out it takes two 8.5 x 11 pages to print a gas receipt.

    It is apparent to me that most people just accept the limitations of evernote and do not complain.

  5.  

    When I send an email out, I send a copy to another email address I have, and we then forward that one to evernote, and it works fine.  I already had the other email going out, so it was just a matter of forwarding the email upon receipt.

     

     

    I think that is a good workaround for outbound mail, but I have been unable to get either GMail or YahooMail to auto-forward and include the normal headers that are included with a manual forward.  Both of these providers seem to "redirect" rather than auto-foward.  

     

    Maybe I'm missing something, some setup in those email providers.  Any suggestions?  Or do you use another email provider?

     

    Sorry, I use Outlook for ours.  I did find this for forwarding gmail though.

    Good luck!

  6.  

    I just figured a complex work around.

    By testing for my notebook @Tidd Orders - in outllook, I then forwarded it to my evernote email address.  By using the forward it put in the headers.  Not as nice as doing it directly but it does work.

    Have a GREAT day!

    That works great for INBOUND email, but not for outbound email where you BCC your Evernote account.

    As the OP requested, we need an option for Evernote to put the email header info (To, From, cc, bcc, date sent) in the body of the Evernote Note.

     

    If have tried many other solutions, including IFTTT, Outlook rules, Outlook macros, and none worked.  I'm referring to Outlook 2011 Mac.  Outlook Win might work differently.

  7. I'm pretty sure that I did something like this using the Zapier service, a couple of years ago. The trigger was an incoming email to my GMail account from a certain company (you could use any search filter, I believe), and the action was to create a new note in Evernote.. I was able to add header information by specifying GMail fields in the Content area

  8. I have this same frustration. I'd like to be able to bcc to my Evernote (for example contracts, key comminiques that need to be documented) and for the note that shows up in Evernote to have the "to" "from" "sent" (time & date) info attached to that note. Without that, you effectively have to send two different emails. The first to the intended recipient, then the next one a forward of that sent email to Evernote.

     

    This is more about documentation for me.

    We would definetly like to have this as an option.  Would be very very helpful to us.
