An Applescript to Archive Apple Mail Emails into Evernote

Looking for ways to get Apple Mail messages into Evernote?

Here are a few options for you…

***

Email Them In

One fast way to get items into Evernote is simply to email them. Brett Kelly’s eBook, “Evernote Essentials” provides a solid guide to how this works (See the chapter called “Evernote, Email and You”) along with some other great email-related tips.1

Use AppleScript

If you’re moving a lot of emails at once (or just want more control while you move them), you can set up an Mail/Evernote AppleScript which allows you to archive items directly between the apps with a keystroke. Version 2.0 of the Apple Mail to Evernote AppleScript is now available: It includes support for HTML messages and also more configurable settings to customize it to your workflow.

Drag-and-Drop

You can drag-and drop a message into Evernote if you’re okay with it being an .eml attachment to your note and not the actual message text.

  1. Note: This requires your information to pass through email servers which, depending on what it is, you might not want to do. [↩]

Grab them while they’re cheap!

I bought an Eye-Fi Explore Card last week and have been impressed with how well it works — not only with Evernote, but with other online phone services and with iPhoto’s new geotagging features. A solid buy and one I would recommend to almost anyone with a digital camera and a wireless network!
