Putting due dates on tasks emailed in

smokegrey says:
Hi there

If I'm importing a task list by email, is it possible to assign a due date to those tasks in the email? They're all due on the same day.

I know I can email them in and then use multiedit to assign them a due date, but that's pretty unwieldy.

Any ideas/suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!

Sadly, no. But you are not alone is thinking it's a great idea...

Pardon what must seem repetitive, but when I see the same good ideas surfacing over and over, I am compelled to note the fact.

The idea of parsing the text in the data entry field has been around since RTM was wet behind the ears, and I have watched the idea resurface over and over.
