What is EvilNote?
EvilNote is a professional bulk email tool: you can use multiple SMTP servers (rotation), templates, recipient lists, spoofing (custom From address), and many options to improve deliverability.
1. Sign up and log in
- Create an account. Go to the Sign up page.
- Choose a password (at least 8 characters). If a captcha (e.g. “Verify you are human” or a checkbox) appears, complete it — it protects the site from bots. Then click “Create account”.
- Save your login code shown after signup. It is displayed only once and looks like
MN-XXXX-XXXX. Without this code you cannot log in. - To log in, go to the Login page. Enter your login code and password. If a captcha is shown, complete it first. Then click “Log in”.
2. The dashboard
After login you see the dashboard. At the top: logo, your login code, language and logout. Below are charts (sends per day, success vs failure) and tabs:
- Send — compose and send emails (or schedule for later)
- SMTP — add and manage SMTP profiles
- Leads — email lists (recipients); supports CSV with columns for email and name
- Templates — save subject and body as a template; use
{{email}}and{{name}}for personalization - Logs — send history and CSV export
- Gifts — codes you receive (e.g. SMTP details)
- Blacklist — emails that will never receive your sends
3. How to send emails — step by step
- Add an SMTP profile. Go to the SMTP tab, fill in: profile name, host (e.g. smtp.gmail.com), port (e.g. 587), TLS if needed, user (email) and password, then “Save profile”. You need at least one profile to send.
- Choose recipients. On the Send tab you can either pick a saved list from the “Recipients” menu or paste emails in the text box (one per line or comma/semicolon separated). Lists are created in the Leads tab (upload file or paste + “Save list”).
- Spoof / From (optional). In “Spoof / From” you can set the address emails appear to come from (e.g. noreply@yourdomain.com). You can also set Display name (e.g. “Support”) and Reply-To (where replies go).
- Subject and content. Enter the subject and body. You can use template variables:
{{email}}and{{name}}— they are replaced per recipient (name comes from your list if you use a CSV with a name column). Enable HTML if you use HTML. Use Preview to see how the email looks with sample data. Optionally choose a template from the menu — it fills subject and content (templates are saved from the Templates tab). - Send. Select the SMTP profile (or enable “SMTP rotation” and check multiple profiles). Set Delay (ms) between emails if you want (e.g. 500). If your account has a daily quota, the remaining count is shown (e.g. “Quota: 800 / 1000 remaining today”). Click Send. The result appears below (sent count, failures, and optionally skipped unsubscribed). Alternatively, use Schedule send to set a date and time — the system will send automatically at that time (if the server cron is configured).
4. Advanced spoofing options
On the Send tab, below the main fields, you’ll find:
- Display name — how the sender appears (e.g. “Support Team”)
- Reply-To — where replies are sent
- Preheader — short text shown in inbox preview
- List-Unsubscribe URL — unsubscribe link (e.g. https://yoursite.com/unsubscribe) for compliance and better deliverability
- From rotation — multiple From addresses, used in turn
- Custom headers — extra HTTP headers if needed
The “SPF / DKIM & spoofing” section briefly explains how spoofing works.
5. Recipient lists (Leads)
- Go to the Leads tab.
- Either upload a .txt or .csv file (emails one per line or comma-separated), or paste emails into the box. CSV files can have a name column (or similar) — the system maps the first column to email and the second to name when present, so you can use
{{name}}in templates. - Give the list a name and click Save list.
- The list appears in the “Recipients” menu on the Send tab — select it and send to everyone on the list. Emails on your blacklist are never included.
6. Templates and personalization
In subject and body you can use {{email}} (recipient email) and {{name}} (recipient name from your list). They are replaced for each recipient when you send.
- On the Send tab, fill in subject and content (and optionally From, Reply-To). Use Preview to test with sample email/name.
- Go to the Templates tab, enter a template name and click Save template. From / Reply-To are saved too if you filled them.
- Next time you send, choose the template from the menu and subject, content and From settings are filled automatically.
7. Logs and export
On the Logs tab you see all sends (to, subject, status, date). You can click Export CSV to download a file with this data.
8. Blacklist
On the Blacklist tab you can add email addresses that must never receive your sends. When you send to a list, any address on your blacklist is automatically skipped. Use this for bounces, opt-outs not handled by List-Unsubscribe, or test addresses.
9. Gifts
Codes you receive (e.g. SMTP details or vouchers) appear on the Gifts tab. You can copy the code with the Copy button and use it (e.g. to add a new SMTP profile).
10. Unsubscribe (for recipients)
If you add an unsubscribe link in your emails (e.g. https://yoursite.com/unsubscribe?email=...) and set the List-Unsubscribe URL field in the panel, the system adds the right headers. Recipients who click the link are recorded and will not receive future sends (they are excluded automatically).
