Complete tasks via email

Sorry if this is a repost...searched a bit, but didn't find this.

I get reminders via email when a task is due. I'd like to reply to that email with "complete" when the task is done. It'd save firing up the web or iPhone interface.

This is sort of along the same lines, but what I'd really like to be able to do...

Is mark a task complete WHEN I EMAIL IT IN to my RTM.

I've started using RTM to track the things I'm doing at work, and often I email in a task from my work email so the email body is in as a note. However, lots of times, I've already finished whatever I had to do when I email it in. I'd love to add something like status:complete so I don't have to take the extra step to go into RTM and mark it complete.

This idea is considered similar to "Ability to respond to reminder emails to complete, postpone, etc", and all votes have been transferred to that idea.
