Discuss all things Remember The Milk.

Incoming filters (e.g. if a new task has the word 'buy', move it to the Shopping list)

I use Jott to add new things to Remember the Milk when I'm not at my computer. It would be really cool to be able to setup filters and/or actions to be applied to new tasks that arrive in the Inbox. For example, I call Jott and say "Buy Milk". So a new task arrives entitled "Buy Milk." Then the filter or action triggers since it sees the word "Buy" and it moves that task to the Shopping list.

As an alternative, you could have your Shopping list be a smart list which picks up any task that has the word "Buy" in it.

This is very much needed.
@wcitypoe, your suggestion works as long as you don't need to share. Since RTM disallows sharing Smart Lists, if you want to share tasks you must move to a list, and not to a smart list.
