Now a really cool gui thing would be:

Click a message and drag and drop it on the task folder in the tree. 
This triggers a dialog box which would allow setting the follow up and
alarm functions.

Personally, I see no reason to combine calendars and task lists with a
mail client, but if you are going to, then take full advantage of it. 
This would also mean dragging and dropping a calendar date onto a
contact to cue a meeting notice email, etc.  Maybe Evolution 2.5 ;-{!>
