Task creation by right-clicking of an email

[Guest]

Quite often I get a email work request that comes through to me and I'll want
to setup a task in my Tasks folder. At the moment I have to copy the contents
from the email into a new Task. Setting 'flags' isn't user friendly for my
purposes. I'd like to see a 'right-click' option to generate a new task. This
Task would pick-up the subject and the content of the email and add them into
the new task - all in one quick click!

Can't you right-click the message and drag it to your Tasks folder, choosing
one of the three options you'll get?

Great one, thanks! I never knew you could do that, but I'd still like to see
that feature.
