Email This is a popular browser extension and bookmarklet designed to convert cluttered web pages into clean, ad-free, and readable text formats. It then automatically emails that polished content straight to your inbox for offline or future reading.
Because modern versions of the Opera browser run on the Chromium engine, you can use the Chrome Web Store version of Email This seamlessly, or use its universal browser bookmarklet. 🚀 How to Set Up “Email This” in Opera
You can get Email This up and running in Opera using one of two methods: Method 1: Install via the Chrome Web Store (Recommended) Open your Opera browser. Go to the Chrome Web Store.
Search for Email This (or look for similar native extensions like InboxThis). Click Add to Opera and confirm the installation.
Click the extension icon in your toolbar to input your email address and verify it. Method 2: Use the Universal Bookmarklet Go to the official Email This website.
Drag the provided “Email This” bookmarklet button up into your Opera Bookmarks Bar.
Note: If your Bookmarks Bar is hidden, press Ctrl + Shift + B (Windows) or Cmd + Shift + B (Mac) to show it. 📖 How to Save Articles with “Email This”
Once configured, saving an article is an incredibly simple, one-click process:
Navigate to any online article, blog post, or long-form piece of news you wish to save.
Click the Email This extension icon in your toolbar (or click the bookmarklet in your Bookmarks Bar).
Wait a brief moment for the tool to process the page. A small notification will confirm that the article has been clipped and sent.
Open your email inbox (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.) to find a beautifully formatted, distraction-free version of the article featuring just the core text and images. ✨ Key Features of the Extension
Ad & Clutter Removal: The tool strips away invasive sidebars, tracking elements, pop-ups, and advertisements.
Offline Reading: Because the full text and major images are delivered directly inside the email body, you can open and read the article later on your phone or laptop without an active internet connection.
No Separate App Needed: Unlike dedicated “Read Later” services like Pocket or Instapaper, you don’t need a separate app or account to manage. Your inbox becomes your searchable library.
PDF Attachments: Depending on your tier preferences, the extension can also bundle a clean PDF copy of the web page directly to the email for archival purposes.
If you find that older iterations of “Email This” are experiencing issues in newer Opera builds, excellent active alternatives that behave identically include InboxThis or Go2Mail. InboxThis – Chrome Web Store
