I agree with both of you that it would be great to have parsing available in TBE without having to ask for it. But I have a question? Would you run the parsing on every task submitted through TBE? Some tasks should not be parsed. For example, in the task

     Congratulate Farhad Manjoo @fmanjoo on his latest essay

@fmanjoo is a twitter but if I parsed this message MLO would try to make it into a context. How would you go about flagging which items to parse and which items not to parse?

There is a way to do that which works today. Send your tasks in to TBE the same as you do today, and wherever it helps you, go ahead and include parsing commands. A while later, on Windows, open your MLO inbox, find the to-be-parsed items and one at a time, select the item and type Alt-Enter. You can find this in the user's manual on page 104, under "Parsing the task caption in the Outliner"

Agree, with testing a lot of task managers & outliners, MLO is probably the best.But even like all the others, there are some functionalities missing. Email parsing is one of them. Putting all kind of parameters like CONTEXT & reminders, makes the functionality much more vlaueble. Moving a task to a folder or project, whould be much appareciated, but having the first two added is a requirement for an relaible workflow. I have tons of other ideas, but that should be discussed in other topics.

    I was surprised as well that MLO doesn't support parsing tasks by
    email. Seems strange as the functionality is there already - it just
    needs to be applied to TBE just as with any other task.

    Please add this functionality MLO! It would help automate a lot of
    my work.
