Notion to retire Notion Mail as AI inbox powers take the lead

Notion is shutting down Notion Mail, its AI-powered email inbox, across web, desktop, and iOS on September 22. Starting June 25 you can export Notion Mail data, with September 21 as the last day to save anything you want to keep; afterward, any unsaved data will be deleted.

Notion Mail can still be downloaded from the App Store before it’s discontinued.

Satirical App 'Sinceerly' Promises to Hide AI-Written Emails by Adding Human Flaws

A tongue-in-cheek app called Sinceerly claims to erase AI telltales from emails by injecting human-style mistakes and typos. It offers Subtle, Human, and CEO modes, and the author’s hands-on test treats it as satire, noting the deadpan tone and playful critique of AI writing tropes. The developer, Ben Horwitz, says the project is meant to provoke thought about credibility, trust, and integrity in writing, suggesting that the AI-human debate in daily communication may become even more tangled—an observation that underscores how “LLMs all the way down” blur the lines between human and machine prose.

Gmail Gets a Fresh Start: Change Your Username Without Losing Your Data

Google is rolling out a feature that lets you change your Gmail username (the part before @gmail.com) without resetting your account data. Your old address remains available as an alias, and all data stays intact, with the option to switch back. Availability is currently limited to the US and India, and you can change your username only once per year (up to four usernames total per account, since you can change it three times after the original). Chromebook users may need to remove and re-add their Google account, and you may need to sign back into some apps after the change.

DOJ emails surface suggesting Prince Andrew–Giuffre photo is real

A 2015 email from Ghislaine Maxwell to Jeffrey Epstein, released by the DOJ, describes a photo of Prince Andrew with Virginia Giuffre and implies the image was taken and not viewed as improper, a detail Giuffre’s supporters cite as vindication while Andrew continues to deny wrongdoing and recall of meeting Giuffre remains uncertain. The documents also show Maxwell’s efforts to distance herself and relate the photo to Epstein’s circle, and they come as calls mount for Andrew to testify in U.S. Congress amid ongoing Epstein scandal coverage.

It's an early feature limited to “trusted testers” and currently only works with consumer Gmail accounts (not Workspace). While it could potentially make email management easier or even transformational, the Verge notes it’s still in development and not something the author expects will immediately change his own workflow.
