Getting e-mail newsletters without using your mail

Subscribing to newsletters can be hazardous to your inbox. Even if you mark the ones you don’t want to receive as spam, you might still get bugged by daily and weekly digests from your favorite sites.

Nevertheless, newsletters are important to keep in touch with your favorite subjects and up to date with trends or special offers.

Some of the best note taking applications are free. I’ll state three of them here, as an example:

• Springpad
• Evernote
• Simplenote

These note taking apps support saving notes by posting an e-mail message to a given address, which is will be a generated address by the note taking service and not your personal account.

So, if you do not already own an account on one of these services, take the time to subscribe free. Next just follow two simple steps:

1. Configure the e-mail adress where you can post notes to.


2. Update your newsletter subscriptions to deliver contents to your newly acquired e-mail address.
