Hi,

Still running Outlook 2003 with Exchange backend. I'm wondering, is it
possible to associate an email message with a calendar item or task? For
example, I just registered for a webinar later this week. They sent me a
confirmation email and I created an appointment and would love to be able to
look at the appointment and either see or link back to the email so I can
find the directions on how to join the webinar. I've frequently wanted to
do the same thing with a task initiated from an email.

Is this possible? If so, how do I do it? Of course, going from the email
to the associated appointment or task would also be helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Linn

drag or right click+drag the message to the task or calendar folder. (or to
the button at the bottom of the nav pane) and drop.
