Howdy GTD fans. I’m back from vacation in the Great North, with a replacement for the mysteriously vanishing FutureMail. Greg from Canadian Urban Eskimo has written a reminder system with a 100% Pure Email Interface. Here are the Three Easy Steps to Tickling Bliss:
- Subscribe by sending an email to admin@gtdmail.org.
- Complete the simple verification process (it wouldn’t do to give spammers a back door into your nice shiny GTDMail system), and you get your very own gtdmail.org email address!
- Send this address an email with your desired reminder date/time in brackets, in simple, intuitive syntax. Recurrence is supported, even encouraged!
- I know, but this one really isn’t a step. Enjoy your newfound peace of mind. And remember kids, it’s beta software, so go easy.
The full scoop can be found here and here. Go nuts.

June 17th, 2005 at 2:26 pmHi there, here via Michele…nice looking blog you have here. Your post awoke me to the fact that I will be traveling by plane in a few weeks and I now have a terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach. Not your fault, I’m just terrified for no reason whatsoever of flying…you obviously don’t have that…lucky!

November 10th, 2005 at 4:08 pmThanks, Greg. I’m still a satisfied user. I’ve thought once or twice about trying Remember the Milk, but its email interface isn’t nearly as full-featured, and a task can only belong to one list at a time, which doesn’t fit GTD.
I tried Kinkless for a day or so, but it doesn’t like projectless tasks. So I keep coming back to Gmail. The only thing about it that I’m not satisfied with is its speed — or lack thereof.
