I tried: - Add a new task with a @help at the end, CC them in along with the @planleaf.com email - Add a new task with a @help@example.com at the end, CC @planleaf.com
Both didn't work and I received no email from Planleaf to say that it couldn't be parsed.
Creating a new list, CC tasks@planleaf.com and help@example.com did work.
Is adding a new assignee after the list has been created supported?
That's my criticism with managing tasks through email: input validation and feedback isn't seamless. In an app UI this is instant. From what I've seen Planleaf doesn't give me feedback if I type something incorrectly.
As email is much more freeform than a form that's a barrier to being simple and intuitive. Not an insurmountable one, but I think you need to do a little more hand holding.
That said, it's a great idea with promising execution and something I've mulled over building for our marketplace.
