Here are my observations (running latest versions of Mavericks, Evernote 
and Mailmate):

1) Evernote didn't have to be running; it was started up when needed, 
and the note created just fine.
2) It created a new notebook ("Inbox") for the note. It needs to do 
something, but I'll now dig into the bundle to configure it more to my 
taste, though it was good it didn't fail silently because I didn't have 
an "Inbox" notebook.
3) The 'Add' command just puts the email subject into the note title 
field. This wasn't what I expected to happen, not having used other 
bundle commands before. I'd expected the 'Add' to put the whole email 
in, but the 'Add with summary' to put the email minus attachments. To 
this new user, then, the command names are confusing.
4) But, mostly, of course, thanks for adding this so quickly.
