With Socialtext, you no longer have to hunt through your inbox for that important email. Your team can share important client emails, or keep track of a sale, or publish critical insights that used to be locked in your inbox simply by forwarding those emails into the workspace. It's that easy.

>> Send an email to your_workspace@socialtext.net *, replacing "your_workspace" with the workspace ID of your workspace. A link with your workspace's email address is available from the *Email menu.

>> Administrators can configure whether they want email to a workspace to appear at the top of a page, the bottom of a page, or to replace the page entirely by going to Settings and then This Workspace.
> Send an email message to a category.
>> Each category in the workspace has its own email address. You can see and copy the email address for the category by clicking on "Categories" in the workspace menu, and clicking on the category name. To send a message to the "meeting minutes" category in the "mega-corp" workspace, use the following email address:
>>> mega-corp+meeting_minutes@socialtext.net

>> Alternatively, you can place
.pre
Category: categoryname
.pre
>> in the first line of an email.
> Post an email message to a weblog.
>> Each weblog in the workspace has its own email address. To find the email address for a weblog, every weblog has a link under the title called Post To This Weblog By Email.
