## The problem

School emails pile up; you find the slip the morning it is due.

## How Plexii handles it

Mail tags fill themselves from a rule (for example, from the school’s address); link the tag to a Family desk; make a task from each email with a due date.

In short: Let school emails tag themselves, send each one to the family desk, and turn the deadlines into tasks with dates.
