Create and Use Email Templates in MacOS Mail

If you find yourself often typing or copying the same things over and over for different recipients at different times, why not create an email template? This could be very useful for introductions, or other things you would like to include that don't have to do anything with your signature.

Let's see how to do that in MacOS Mail app.

Creating the Templates

  1. Click the + sign next to Mailboxes to create a new Mailbox. 
  2. Choose a location and give it a name (ex. Templates). Click OK.
  3. Now click the New Message button to create your template. I usually leave my templates without adding the recipients' emails.
  4. Close the New message window and click Save at the prompt. This will save the message as a Draft.
  5. Now find it in your Drafts folder, and right-click, and Move to -> Templates.
  6. If you already sent a message that you want it saved as a Template, find it in your Sent mailbox, right-click on it, Copy to -> Templates.

Using a template

Now that you have your templates saved, here's how to use them.
  1. Go to your Templates mailbox and select your desired Template.
  2. Open the Message menu and click Send.
  3. This will open the new message window with that template, so you can make any changes / additions, add a recipient, and send it as you normally would.

New Page template button with timestamp in the title - Notion

These days I'm all about discovering ways for people to use Notion  without  the use of databases, as databases slow things down. I'm also an advocate for minimalism while still having an efficient workflow. Today I'm giving a tip with an example of daily journal entries. Usually, a Notion template comes with a database for journal pages, with a "Date created" property which is mighty convenient. But you can also replicate that without a database.  This will make it super fast for you to start journaling on a new page with the current date and time already added to the title. Create a simple text page where all your journal entries will be stored (no databases/tables). Optional: You may create a subpage to serve as an Archive for past entries. Again this should be a simple text page, not a database. You may also have multiple archives, named after the 12 months or years to keep things more organized. Type / , then template , then select the Template button . Give
