Overview

Animus gives you a unique email address that turns forwarded emails into saved content. Any email you forward is scanned for links — each URL is automatically added to your library, fully processed and searchable. No apps, no extensions — just forward an email and your links are saved.

Setup

1

Open the Animus dashboard

Go to the Integrations page in the Animus web app and find Email Saves.
2

Enable Email Saves

Click Connect to activate the feature. Animus generates a personal save address for you (e.g. a1b2c3d4@save.animus.so).
3

Copy your save address

Click the copy button next to your address. Forward any email containing links to this address and they will be saved automatically.
Add your save address as a contact in your email client so it’s always easy to find.

How it works

When you forward an email to your save address, Animus extracts all URLs from the subject line and body, filters out tracking links and images, and saves each unique URL to your library. Up to 10 links per email are processed.

Allowed senders

By default, emails from any sender are accepted. To restrict who can save to your library:
  1. Open the Email Saves settings on the Integrations page.
  2. Add email addresses to the Allowed senders list.
  3. Once at least one sender is added, only emails from those addresses are processed.
You can add up to 50 allowed senders. Remove all entries to return to open mode.

Regenerating your address

If your save address is compromised or you want a fresh one, click Regenerate on the Email Saves settings page. This instantly invalidates the old address and creates a new one — no emails sent to the previous address will be processed.

FAQ

What types of links are saved? All http and https URLs found in the email subject and body. Tracking links, image URLs, unsubscribe links, and social share buttons are automatically filtered out. Is there a limit on links per email? Yes. Animus processes up to 10 unique URLs per email to prevent abuse. Can I disable Email Saves without losing my address? Yes. Toggle the feature off from the Integrations page. Your address is preserved and can be re-enabled at any time. Does it process attachments? No. Only URLs in the email subject and body are extracted. Attachments are ignored.
