    \n\"email_in_task_without-format\"
    \n<\/span><\/li>\n

    \n\"Forward<\/li>\n
  7. Paste the email-in address here and forward the existing emails as tasks in ProofHub
    \n\"fwd<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    While adding the start and end dates, you will have to keep the date format in mind. If your account has a date format like mm\/dd\/yyyy, then you need to write the dates according to this format.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Format:<\/strong><\/span>
    \n<\/span><\/p>\n

    [Task] Task name<\/span><\/p>\n

    [Desc] Description<\/span><\/p>\n

    [Start] 01\/12\/2024\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    [End] 01\/15\/2024\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    [Subtask] Task name<\/span><\/p>\n

    [Desc] Description<\/span><\/p>\n

    [Start] 01\/12\/2024<\/span><\/p>\n

    [End] 01\/17\/2024<\/span><\/p>\n
