Email addresses for capture

Capture-by-email works only when the email’s From address is registered against your account. Your sign-up email is registered automatically; this page is how to add others (work email, a shared family inbox) so you can forward from those too.

  • Moonjar app installed and signed in.
  1. Open Settings → Email addresses.
  2. The screen lists every address registered to your account, with an optional label per address. The address you signed up with is labelled Primary.
  1. Tap + Add.
  2. Enter the email address.
  3. (Optional) Add a label — Work, Shared family, Old account.
  4. Save.

Forward an email from this address to save@in.moonjar.io to test. Moonjar replies confirming the capture.

  1. Tap the address.
  2. Tap Remove.

The address is no longer registered; future forwards from it get the “sender not recognised” reply.

What if someone else uses the same address

Section titled “What if someone else uses the same address”

Email addresses are unique across Moonjar. If you try to add an address registered to another account, you get an explicit error — “this email address is already registered by another user”. The address can only be associated with one account at a time. Remove it from the other account first (if it’s yours) or use a different address.

  • Addresses are case-insensitive (Gmail’s Foo+bar@gmail.com and foo+bar@gmail.com are treated as the same).
  • There’s no per-account limit on registered addresses, but each must be valid (contain an @).
  • The address is matched exactly on incoming email. Plus-tags matter — you+moonjar@gmail.com is treated as a different address from you@gmail.com.
