Import email only accepting about 50 tasks at a time

ecyrb says:
I'm trying to import 500+ tasks, but for some reason only 49-51 seem to get imported each time. I am using the new Smart Tag syntax to add two tags to each task. For example:

My first task #tag1 #tag2
My second task #3 #tag

I also noticed that, of the ones getting imported, sometimes it doesn't recognize #3 as a tag. Maybe because it's just a number? It works for a few, but for most it sees the task as "My second task #3" with a tag of "tag".

Any idea what might be going wrong?

Importing does only currently support 50 tasks at a time. Best to break the messages up into batches.

As far as the tags not being supported, do those tags already exist in your tasks? If not, you may want to create them; Smart Add seems to do better with existing tags.
