Tasks should link to related emails

When you create a task from an email, there should be a link in the task to the original email. Otherwise creating the task from the email is pretty pointless.

I have made a similar suggestion and am hoping it will get implemented. For now I am using the following work-around: save the e-mail as a “.eml” file, then include it as an attachment to the task.

Hello,

This is in our long term plan, it will be implemented however I am unable now to tell you when exactly or even some approximate time.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled
Linking a mail message and a task.

I like that eM Client allows tasks to be created from a mail message. It would be great to be able to retrieve that e-mail message from the task at a later time (i.e. the link between the mail message and the task remains).

I have merged topics with same requests into one. This helps us track what features are requested by more people and which by less.

Using one (or as less as possible) topics with requests is very important.

Anyway this is still planned as I have written before

Sounds great. Thanks!
I have been using eM Client for 3 days and am very encouraged to see both the current features and the openness to suggested improvements.

Thank you for your support and understanding

Great idea, Daniel. Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for your workaround.

This is an obvious and critical need.  Surprised it was not implemented from the beginning.

Hi, thank you for the suggestion, we’ll consider adding the feature to future releases.

Or could the task at least preserve the formatting from the email?   Colors and fonts would be nice, but right now it removes tabs and returns which as others state, makes it unusable sometimes. 

Is there any news on this?

Hello Barbara, unfortunately it is not possible to keep formatting in the notes of the Task at the moment, we’ll consider improving this in future releases.
