Import a list with dates
(closed account) says:
Hi,
I am looking for a way to import a list of tasks which have dates, and need to be repeated etc.
I can format the data to suit, but can't work out how I can do this. The closest thing I could see was the "Import a list via email?", which would be perfect if only it allowed dates to be added too.
Any ideas? Many thanks...

I was thinking that perhaps it would be quite simple with some little section eg:
Remember the milk !due Monday at 9am !repeat weekly !priority 1
Much like the great way you can email tasks, but for emailing lists.

Hi pandaking,
The list import via email only supports task names at this time; it doesn't handle other task properties, sorry.

Hi emily, thanks for getting back to me.
I realise it currently isn't possible by email which is why I created this topic. I was merely wondering if there was a way to import a list with dates?
My second post was more of a suggestion of a way to improve the current way of emailing lists. By allowing filtering in each line with little code segments for example: !repeat, !due, !priority, etc.
So then you could email a list like:
Remember the milk !due Monday at 9am !repeat weekly !priority 1
Don't forget the dinner reservation !due Friday at 7:30pm
Remember Tom's Birthday !due 16th December !repeat yearly
