One thing I do is combine the calendar and copy messages into a calendar item. The calendar also sends reminders - e-mail/sms/popup - and also occasionally into tasklist.
You also have the option to place a star on a message thread and something really urgent I mark it as unread so it keeps staying in the inbox until I finish it. 2010/3/17 Brian Schott <[email protected]>: > Bjorn, > > Yes, I agree that it would be nice to be able to customize a mail > reader to my own preferences, although my preferences are likely quite > different from yours or anyone elses. > > A preference I have would be to use a Tab in front of paragraphs and > maybe for lining up columns in a message, but gmail does not make that > easy, does it? > > I have also thought I would like to annotate and edit some messages, > for my own later reference.
