In this article we will be explaining the steps to send emails using Notion. For those who haven’t heard about it, Notion is a free productivity and note-taking application that offers a range of organizational tools including task management, project tracking, to-do lists, calendars, bookmarking and more.

For the purpose of emailing, we will use an online tool called Notionsender. This tool allows you to Save emails to Notion as well as Create Emails from Notion pages and send them to others. Let us see the steps that are involved in both functions.
