I’d like to be able to take an email from my desktop client and email it to Mentat. Wrike allows this, and it’s a useful feature.
I’ve given up on the Blackberry client (and blackberry) and have an iphone, so I’m using the site in the browser again. However, as you can’t cut and paste on the iphone, email to Mentat would rock.
something like:
zsdf-dvg@gomentat.com
subject: <category><task>
Body of email becomes the info of the task

I’m honestly getting disappointed that no one from the Mentat team has commented on my feature requests, even to say, “not interested” or “we’ll get to it in three versions.”
If you’re asking for ideas, please at least acknowledge them.

I’m sorry, we’re all here, we’re just working our butts off.
Dave Brown and I have been discussing email-based tasked creation as described for some time. It is actually on the list and will work as described.
I apologize for not responding earlier.

Email to create a task would be a great feature. I’ve tried out tons of web-based GTD/To do apps and many of them have this feature. I know I can just use Jott, which is awesome, but there are times when I am on a laptop/desktop and would like to cut/paste something from email to create a task.
I’m new to Mentat, but already enjoying my experience and have already gotten a few of my team members signed up!

Has there been any progress on email to Task? This would be a GREAT feature in Mentat, and make it much more user friendly. It could even replace some of the functionality that I like(ed) from Jott.
