it would be helpful to rather be able to instantly add an appt/mtg request
from an email - rather than have to go to calendar or even away from the
message to accomplish the need.  furthermore, it would be really cool to have
outlook "think" by processing the info in the body of the message to fill in
content in your desired appt/mtg request...

Dragging the message to the calendar will open an appointment compose
window.

How would you propose that be accomplished since you can't control how the
sender formats the message?  He could write

Meeting location: My house
TIme: 19-May-2006 7:00 pm

or he could write

Could you come over to my house one week from today at seven o'clock in the
evening?

How would you propose Outlook handle both of those?
