Lion mail To Do?

Did Apple do away with To Do in Lion Mail? I can't find it and I rely on it!

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

Solution: Drag and drop your emails into either Reminders or Notes. You can drag-and-drop directly into Reminders and Notes, and into the Reminders Icon on the dock, but apparently you can't drop into Notes on the dock


If you drag it into Reminders, you can add a Reminde me

  1. On a Date
  2. At a Location


Also, the reminder will contain a link to the original email! The reminder will also show up on your iPhone if you have iCloud enabled. So the location feature can be handey.


If you drag to an email item into an existing Notes, but it won't create a new note for you automatically like it does for Reminders.


So, you still have to-do's, although its the Apple version.

This solution works good on mac so I can find the e-mail using link in the reminder (by the way, if I add some comments near the link - it doesn't work anymore 😟 ). But synchronized reminder on my iPhone contain link "message:@3C....." which doesn't get me to the e-mail on iPhone. The iPhone has the same mail box as mac, so it has all the e-mails. Is it possible to fully extend the function on all Apple devices?
