Create task by sending an email to the Plan
Currently, when a task is created in a "Plan" there is an associated group and group email address for that "Plan". If a user was to comment on a task, an email is sent to the group. Likewise if the recipient of that email replies to it, the comment appears in the task. Would it be possible to Send a new email to the "Plan" email address to create a task with the subject line of that email being the task name and the email's content being the description?

We’re in the process of finalizing designs for a Planner add-in for Outlook. From the add-in, users will be able to create tasks for Planner without having to leave their inbox. The email subject and body will autofill as the task title and description, respectively, and users will have the ability to set plan, bucket and assignees . We appreciate your feedback and patience and look forward to this first step in what we hope to be a greater integration with Outlook!

Hi Product Team,
I just read your design option and that's not what people are requesting.
The goal is to have an inbound mail catcher not an option to create a task from outlook.
This go in the way of process automation. -

Please? Any updates on whether or not you are any closer? The post saying it was in a 'finalizing designs' stage was over two years ago.
My company is really wanting this functionality.

When indeed....My company is literally about to decide on whether planner is to be used corporately or look at alternatives. Lets get this moving!

Any updates on this please? I have several users who are asking for this again. Hoping that this isn’t yet another product that we’ve adopted that Microsoft is just going to give up on.
