drag and drop to link multiple items in outlook

[Guest]

I would like to create links between different types of elements in Outlook.
For instance: I have a Task "Compile progress-reports from group-leaders
before board meeting". When I receive mails with progress-reports I'd like to
drag-drop them on the Task. Later, when I start to work in that task I will
have easy access to all the mails I linked to the task. I could also
drag-drop the Calendar entry for the board meeting on the Task. That way, I
could easy navigate to the calendar entry and see (for instance) which
persons are invited to the meeting.

The existence of links to an item could be made graphically discrete with a
small icon which gives a drop-down menu when clicked.

this is quite possible with all versions of Outlook. If you have an
existing Task and want to add an email to it, open the Task, Insert | Item,
select the email and click it.
