LaurieAnn	Posted Jan 19, 2012 in: Is there anyway to respond to tasks that were added by email? Score: 0 LaurieAnn Posted: Jan 19, 2012 Score: 0 We have been using our gmail as a task 'to-do' list for way too long. This is definitely not an efficient way to do business. My inbox is overloaded and I've created so many labels now it's just a mess! So, now that we've upgraded to ProPlus version and have learned that we can email tasks to ourselves, things are starting to look a little brighter. I'm not sure if this is the best way to be doing things, but now we will go through our gmail and forward any emails that are actionable to our unique toodledo addresses. This is very helpful, considering that it also brings along any attachments the email may have, as well as, the contents of the email are in the notes section of the task. However, if the email was something that needed to be replied to, is the only way of doing so by going back to gmail and attempting to locate the original email to respond? I was hoping that by forwarding the emails I would no longer have to keep the original in my gmail. A big problem for us is the overwhelming number of emails we receive daily and the history of emails that we are still trying to sort through. We would love to clear the inbox out and just be able to stay on top of it from now on. Any tips or suggestions would be a HUGE help! Thanks!!
