The popular iOS / macOS email client has gained a new feature for both platforms that will be extremely useful for those who use this type of communication at work: the ability to delegate emails as tasks for your colleagues or subordinates.

This allows a group manager or leader to receive emails and immediately assign them to one or more team members as a task; It is possible to set a date for the end. The selected person will receive the email just like anyone else, but Spark warns them that it is a task and displays the deadline for its completion. When the “email task” is marked as completed, the manager receives a notification informing them of the fact.

Here's a demo video:
