Link email auto after converting to task and sent mail from task

Post by alexpr »

I'm getting most of my work by mail and I'm trying to use EssentialPim for organising this.
So I often create a task from a mail. Unfortunatelly I have manually link this mail to the task. Can this not be automaticly done?
Also it would be great if I can answer out of a task by mail.

When you create a task from mail, that message is automatically linked to the newly created task and you can find it on the Related Items tab. You can also always Ctrl+Click on the task's subject to open up the specific mail message and use reply or forward options form there.

The process of creating tasks from mail will be improved in the next major update of EPIM with introduction of the "Follow Up" feature.

Ok, you're right. But when you convert a mail to a task, the mail is not linked in the open task edit window. After closing the task and opening again, the mail is linked as you said.
