Hi Manuel,

The completed rule removes the due date (if any), and all the keywords on the item, and finally adds a new 'Completed' keyword -- so that I can look up Completed items at the end of the day to see how much I achieved. The idea is to save myself the bother of manually opening the MailTags window for the current message and removing the keywords and due date manually when I've finished the action it needs.

Hope that helps!

I have another quick technical question for you: how do you mark an email as 'completed' in MailTags (I refer to your Act-On 'completed' rule)?

Thank you.

Hi Manuel, Nothing beyond the service menu actions.

I haven't actually found the need to link them together any tighter than that, as each application serves a separate purpose for me. I sometimes use the New Journal Entry from Selection service menu action to copy relevant email bits into a Journler project; and conversely the Mail/Send Selection to email myself a reminder of a project action that I'd like to bring back to my attention later.

Otherwise MailTags/Act-on is the hub of my scheduling, and Journler acts as a scrapbook for project based work.

Hope that helps.

Thanks a lot, I am actually trying to find the best way to organize myself using MailTags/Act-on and Journel.

Did you find a way to 'link' them together?

Tks.
