Inappropriate?You need to register your wife's email address with Sandy as a secondary email address here: http://iwantsandy.com/settings -
Inappropriate?norbiq's solution will work, but it has some problems. (The secondary email address has full access to your account.) I think there should be a better way. I thought that you should be able to add someone as a "friend" and then adjust the settings for that friend. I thought this would allow them to put tasks in my todo list. I did some investigation and tried to make it work, but there were even more problems.
I read all the parts of the guide about working with "friends". (http://iwantsandy.com/help/guide#work...) The guide says that you should be able to "automatically accept anything from your significant other". Unfortunately, it doesn't describe how this would work.
First, send an invitation to the other email address. (The friend could also send one to your email address.) This will add that email address as a friend and the email address will show up as one of your friends in your "friends list". (http://www.iwantsandy.com/friends)
Second, go to your friends list and edit the settings there for your friend's email address. Change the "Acceptance policy" to "Accept automatically".
Third, you might want to review your general "sharing" options. See http://iwantsandy.com/settings/sharing
I did all this and I am more confused than when I started. When my friend wants my Sandy to remember something, she has to email my primary email address and also include "her Sandy" as a CC. She cannot email "my Sandy" because whenever she tries to send email directly to *my Sandy* the email is rejected. The result of this is that 1) there is no way to "assign" a task to somebody else, you can only end up "sharing" it. 2) both people have to be set up with Sandy. My friend has to have an independent Sandy account in order to send me tasks.
It gets worse, Sandy then sends a confirmation email to her asking if she really wants to share that email with me. She has to log in, and tell Sandy that yes, she wants to share that email with me. (Even though she already sent me the email directly.)
Am I missing something? Isn't there a better way to do this?
