A dedicated email address for productivity app accounts
Keep magic links and verification codes from productivity apps out of your main inbox with a dedicated, permanent regmail.me address.
What emails do these apps actually send?
Notion commonly signs people in with a magic link sent by email instead of a password, so the email itself is part of every login, not just the first one. Trello and Slack lean more on a verification code or link at signup, plus occasional workspace invitations and security notices afterward.
For an app built around magic-link login, the inbox behind that address matters every time you sign in, not only at the start.
Why keep a productivity account separate?
A personal task board, a test workspace, or a small side project does not need to run through the same inbox as your main correspondence. Keeping it separate means a login link is easy to find fast, and your main inbox does not fill up with workspace notifications you do not need to keep.
Set up an address for a productivity app in three steps
- Sign in to regmail.me with Google and create a mailbox on a regmail.me domain.
- Enter that address when creating the Notion, Trello, or Slack account.
- Open the regmail.me inbox whenever a sign-in link or verification code arrives, since some of these apps ask for it every time you log in.
What if the magic link never arrives?
Check that the address was entered correctly on the login screen, since a link sent to the wrong address never surfaces anywhere.
If the address is correct, confirm the mailbox has not already used its daily allowance on other signups. The free tier delivers up to 5 emails per mailbox per day, and anything past that waits until the next day unless paid overflow has been switched on for that mailbox. This matters more here than for a one-time signup, since a magic-link login can use up that allowance on its own.
Free tier limits before you start
| Limit | Free tier |
|---|---|
| Mailboxes per account | 1 |
| Emails received per mailbox per day | 5 |
| Address expiry | None, the address is permanent |
| Sending mail out | Not supported, receive only |
regmail.me cannot send a reply, so any workflow that expects a response by email will not work from this address. Because the address never expires, it stays available for every future login link and for an account recovery email if one is ever needed.
Is this suitable for every workspace account?
It fits a personal or test workspace you want to keep separate from your main inbox, used by one legitimate account. It is not a way to create multiple accounts on the same app, bypass identity checks, or get around limits a provider applies to a workspace, and none of that is covered here.
Whether a given app accepts a particular domain at signup is decided on their side, not by regmail.me.
Frequently asked questions
Can I sign in to Notion with a magic link using regmail.me?
Yes, enter the regmail.me address at sign-in and Notion sends the login link to that inbox, where you open it to complete sign-in. Because magic-link login repeats every time you sign in on a new session, plan to check the inbox at each login, not just the first one.
Will workspace invitations and notifications still arrive?
Yes, anything Notion, Trello, or Slack send to the address on file arrives within the free daily allowance. Check the inbox directly rather than expecting a forwarded copy. Up to 5 emails a day arrive automatically on the free tier; beyond that, mail is dropped unless paid overflow is switched on and Energy is available for that mailbox.
Can I reply to a workspace invite from this address?
No, the address can receive the invite email but cannot send a reply, since regmail.me is built only to receive. If accepting an invite requires replying by email rather than clicking a link, that step needs a different address.
Does a magic-link app use up the daily email limit faster?
It can, since each sign-in may send its own link in addition to any other mail the app sends. On the free tier that is up to 5 emails a day per mailbox, so frequent logins on the same day can use that allowance faster than a one-time signup would.
