Good question, I look forward to other answers as well. I use MLO only for information relating to the task I have to accomplish, for various reasons:
- Habit - Once a task is done, I often don't keep it, so anything I want kept around I put into a different system. - I go by the philosophy, if an action only takes a few minutes, just do it, so usually I send the small emails immediately - If I compose an email I want to put in the To: and Subject: and can't paste those easily from MLO - I often work on multiple platforms and my drafts folder for gmail propagates to all If a bit of info needs filing (e.g. movie and book recommendations) and I don't have time to do it immediately, I do put it in MLO. On the other hand, this means that many tasks that show in email are not integrated / captured in MLO for me, so I have two systems, which is not ideal and drives me crazy but I don't have a good solution that I've been able to maintain reliably. I do OTOH keep all info related to my task system in MLO. Outlines of what I want to do to rearrange my tasks, etc. I use Evernote for persistent info/lists (except task templates, such as packing lists which I use MLO trees as templates).
