What is the easiest way to convert e-mail to tasks or appointments in OSX?

Hi everyone,

I am considering making the switch, and I am wondering how you all convert an e-mail to a task or appointment in OSX. In Outlook, I just drag it to the Calendar or Tasks button (or use one of the ClearContext buttons). I understand this does not work in Entourage.

Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

MailTags 2.0 is the best...

MailTags 2.0 is the best way for creating ToDo's and as soon as the event creation feature is fixed (borked with Public Beta 5) it will rock for creating events too. Both the software and the developer are worth your support. (I'll drop a plug for Mail Act-On too. Great plugin that.)

I'm not affiliated with Scott Morrison or indev.ca software except as an enthusiastically satisfied customer.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
