Hi Darshana,
We are going to go with a foldering approach to stamping. This allows a
user to drag a mail message in to an IMAP folder and automatically have
it stamped as the appropriate type.
This functionality can then be extended for POP users via the Chandler
IMAP server parcel and eventually for web mail users as well.
More info is available here:

With this approach the stampness of a message is determined by the
user's choice of IMAP folder (Tasks, Events, etc).
The date parsing logic is certainly needed to parse Event emails for
instance and determine the duration of the event.

Hi,
For my next project, I am thinking of parsing emails for date/time
information and stamping them as events if such information is found .
I have written a wiki about the ideas I have about the project.

I would like to know your opinion and suggestions for the project.
More ideas are also welcome :).
Thanks in advance.
Bye,
Darshana
