Could you all simply follow Gmailâs lead and parse the recipient? For userid.string@sync.omnigroup.com you could append and have it direct to a project? userid.string+projectid@sync.omnigroup.com

That complicates whatever you have for a Contacts list. Youâd need one entry for each project. And anything beyond that - like dates - becomes unmanageable.
Something like Taskpaper format in the body of the email, or a single task in that format in the title, would be more manageable.
Remember The Milk, which I migrated from, uses a line with â to mark the end of the list. Thatâs the only deviation from Taskpaper Iâd suggest. (It does it, by the way, so your email signature or corporate disclaimer boilerplate doesnât become part of the tasks.)
+1 badly needed workflowâŚ

Simply processing the subject of the email with the Taskpaper syntax that already exists for automation would be incredibly useful. Iâm surprised I canât have @flagged or @due(tomorrow) in the subject name and have that parsed by Mail Drop.
Honestly Iâm surprised that OF doesnât use the Taskpaper syntax literally everywhere to give us something similar to natural language processing, but I digress.

I actually had assumed this would be the case and tried it today, was disappointed that it didnât work that way.

This is definitely much needed! The ability to already tag items directly into maildrop would be absolutely huge. Whatâs stopping OF from implementing this?

Iâm wondering if this might now be possible with the scripting/API feature thatâs available in OF these days?
