FWIW as a user feedback, I usually do not unstamp the mail-ness as I
find the "from/to" addresses useful info (though having contacts in
Chandler would make it even more useful... I know, I know...).
There's actually *one* situation I take the email-ness out is for events
that become recurring: because of the way we display recurring events in
the Triage Table, recurring mailed events tend to multiply like crazy in
the DONE section when viewing my mail. This annoys me to no end since
one of the thing I like so much about Chandler is that, instead of
having long threads on an item, we keep only one single item alive,
simplifying the management of tasks and events. Well, in the case of
recurring events, we achieve the exact opposite.
One solution would be to filter recurring events more drastically when
displaying Mail. That certainly points to the idea of having a
specialized view for Mail rather than using the same Triage Table View...

Hi Andre,
I think there are some compelling use cases for preserving mail-ness
on task items, if only as a way to identify and record who the task is
associated with (e.g. My aunt wants me to, My boss wants me to, etc.).
A preference would be good.
A way for users to define custom behaviors for their own IMAP folders
would be even better.
Would multi-select and unstamp a whole bunch of items at once ease
your pain as a more realistic near-term stop-gap measure?

+1 for an option to not have MailStamp turned on for what are really not
mail items
Also, I think it would great to have an option to have Chandler delete
the items from the Chandler IMAP folders (particularly Task and Event)
after they are downloaded and imported into Chandler.
Cheers, Andre

Hi Folks,
We were just discussing in IRC that it might be nice to have an option
in Chandler to make items imported from Chandler IMAP folders (Chandler
Tasks, say) not have the MailStamp turned on.
In bug 10726, it looks to me like Andre was going through and
unstamping
mail from his tasks. I, too, find the mail details mostly just
distracting for events and tasks I import from IMAP, so I'm often
tempted to go unstamp their mail-ness.
This is a change unlikely to be made until several months out point,
but
I'm curious if other people think this might be valuable?
Sincerely,
Jeffrey
