I found a great trick !!!! link from mail
 

Just to share with you what i discovered. Sorry if you already know the trick !!!!

Suppose you want to follow an email for example something you are waiting for. Just drag the email directly from "mail" into the text window under the task. A link is created and then if you have t use it just click and magic you mail is open !!!!! Congratulation to the omnifocus team this is absolutly great !!!!! :)))
I am so happy !!!

Doesn't work with Entourage
 

Great tip. Works like a charm with Apple Mail. However, it does not seem to work with Entourage. Instead of the link, it copies the complete email into the notes section.

I have to say I am not getting this to work. Perhaps I am misunderstanding; how exactly are you dragging the message directly from Mail and where are you dropping it? I've tried every combination of methods/places I could think of, no go.

This is a Leopard-only feature.

Thanks for the clarification! I'll be upgrading to Leopard soon, still waiting on a few essential applications to become Leopard-compatible so I can make the switch, can't do it until then.
