Automatically accept tasks from certain contacts

says:
My fiancée and I give tasks to one another via RTM, and it would be nice if I could just automatically accept tasks she gives me (and vice versa).

Haha, no way you can use this product if you have to login to their website to accept tasks. Terrible idea. Terrible.

exactly my point - still no solution to this problem?

Please fix this.. it totally undermines giving tasks to people with an expectation that it will just show up for them.

Started to use RTM for managing a bunch of projects. An option for auto accepting would be a great improvement for a smooth workflow.

I was about to post this very suggestion. I'm bringing my kids onboard with RTM now, and they kind of have to accept Mom's tasks! lol; It would also be really handy when the hubs and I assign each other tasks. It's not like we're going to say no. Having this option would really streamline the process.

Same issue, making a schedule for my daughter to keep her organized. Not going to happen if they doesn't accept tasks. Need an override. What if this was a manager and a direct report, they do what's assigned to them!

Just a tip for those like me frustrated that this feature still hasn't been added: one workaround is to create a shared list for people you share tasks with a lot. Once the list itself is accepted, everything put there will be shared instantly.

Just for RTM's info: that solution isn't ideal. I use lists differently, and having to put all tasks I share with my wife into a separate list is disruptive enough not to be worth the trouble.
