I am not sure I understand the reason for doing this? Why not set a calendar reminder, which then pops up at the desired time? I find mail more and more useless as all the important stuff gets overrun by spam.

I regularly email myself reminders for things. I am almost always logged into email when at work. I am not always logged into a calendar app.

(I do both, but its usually quicker to send an email than log into google calendar and do it that way).

I use emails for reminders too! Also, I'm usually logged in. This is what inspired MailYou.

Thank you for the feedback. I really do appreciate it.

The app allows you to create a living document that is accessible for viewing and editing behind an easy-to-remember URL. No login is required. For your convenience, the system sends a snapshot of it to your inbox every morning.

You may want to use this to track your progress on your goals for the week.

A future version will support multiple recipients, so a group can coordinate on an activity.

Hi, I'm Johnnie. I'm the creator of MailYou. I'm here for questions and feedback for the next hour or so. Also, I'm entertaining contract work and jobs, so let me know of any opportunities.

Great job! It seems really interesting. Re: work, I sent you an email.
