[Mail] Add a "To Do" Section in the Calendar Part of Windows Live Mail

Submitted by jeremysbost on March 17, 2009 to Annoyance, Usability

Currently the online Calendar service allows us to add "To Do" items, but WL Mail doesn't.

Add the "To Do" feature to WL Mail.

Yes this is a must Jeremy! I have asked for this elsewhere. Whenever in the past I have used Firefox, I have always made use of the Reminderfox add on and Windows Live Mail (or IE) is really missing this sort of addition.

Reminderfox add on? Hmm...never heard of it. I'll check it out. :)

reminderfox can be installed to use inside Firefox OR inside Thunderbird, and its a little reminder that sits in your taskbar (or firefox's taskbar) and then you can place any 'to do's' or reminders or anything inside it, then it 'pops up' and is so useful! I have waited and waited for someone to program the equivalent for either IE or Windows Live Mail but no one ever has! Invaluable for such an absent minded person like me!

Neat! Even though I am reluctant to add more stuff to my computer, I may use that. :)
