Turning an Email into a To-Do Item
If you’re anything like me, many of the items on your to-do list are based on emails. Your boss wants you to do this, your mom says you should remember that, you really need to call your girlfriend. Now you can create a new to-do right in Mail, based on the content of an email message, and it’s automatically added to iCal as well as being accessible in Mail.
)
Click to view the email containing your to-do items.
Select the text you want to turn into a to-do; then click the To Do button.
To set options such as a deadline, click the Options button and make your changes.
To view to-dos, click the To Do entry in the Mailboxes column.
Tip: Step by Step
Mail makes one to-do item per click on the To Do button, so be sure to select just one item on your list to convert at a time.
