How to add email notes and @mentions

Gmelius Updated by Gmelius

Make sure to enable push and email notifications in your Gmelius account in order not to miss any note or @mention.

Whenever you open an email, you will notice a widget on the right-hand side of your conversation where you can add notes to the email thread. You can use notes to add context to any conversation. This information will not be shared with the recipient but only with the teammates part of the shared conversation.

To SAVE A NOTE, either click on the red plus button or use the keyboard shortcut:  Crtl + Enter

How to share a note

  2. Write your note and click on the plus button to save.

Ping teammates by @mentioning them in a note

You can do a @mention, e.g., @John on a shared conversation to ping a specific teammate and grab their attention.
