In iOS5.1 can reminders be added to an email?

Hello everyone,

I receive many emails daily as I'm sure many of you do.
Most of my emails are time sensitive. Is there a way to add a reminder (due date & alarm)
directly to an email like in Outlook? Or is there an app (non-jailbreak) that
would do so? Thx.

I'm sorry to say you are out of luck. Though if you include a date and time in an outgoing email and they have a iPhone they will have a opportunity to add that to their calendar. Not sure if that helps you though.

Thanks this did help. Now when I receive an emails that contain dates, times and/or locations... I'm able to click either on the info & will be given options to add reminders or calendar events. I also played around w/ Siri. I opened an email & asked Siri to create me a calendar event based on info contained in the email.
