I sometimes have tasks mailed into my inbox that are not indicated in the left menu, so I have to routinely click into it the inbox to check if anything is there. This is a bug.

I also have a feature suggestion related to this. I would prefer to have a user preference setting for not using the Inbox and instead have all inbox items (emails etc) delivered to the Today list. This would save space in the left menu, and would save me the time to even click into the Inbox.

I realize that some people use the inbox much more frequently than I do, and this is why it would need to be a user preference setting. It could be implemented, for example, on the General Settings page under "Hide the following boxes", by simply also including a checkbox for Inbox.)
