How do I do this in Lotus Notes?

Published by under Main

I quite like Lotus Notes, sort of grown accustomed to it over the years, but it’s handling of tasks really frustrates me.  This is what I want:

  1. Most of my tasks come in via email
  2. When an email arrives that I want to turn into a task I want to click a button – Create Task
  3. I want the email moving to a folder called tasks
  4. I want a new task creating from the body of the email
  5. I want a doclink to the email to be inserted at the top of the task, so that when I have finished the task I can respond to the original distribution list with completion information
  6. Ideally I would like another button that allows me to delete the task and also the associated email

Anyone know how I can setup this simple workflow, or maybe offer some suggestions as to how it could be approved further?
