Importing long tasks splits them across multiple tasks

paddyinhr says:
If you use the task import feature via email it will chop up a long task across two or more tasks. The length limit appears to be approximately what fits on one line when you are viewing the task in the browser.

paddyinhr, we don't have a length limit on our end, but this can happen if your email client wraps long lines (many cut off at something like 72 characters). If you can turn off wrapping in your email client, you'll be able to import tasks with names of any length.

Hope this helps!

Ah! Thanks Emily. It might be worth mentioning that in the Help page for email imports.
