Funny I had been planning to build something like this. My idea was that you would forward an email to the service and just type in the start of it when you want the reminder. Using some simple NLP you'd be able to write something like "next week" or "on Monday" and the system would then email you back when it wanted to remind you.

No need to have your gmail password, or even be gmail specific.

Is there anyone out there who would use this? Enough yeses and I'll build it.

How would this detect whether you got a reply? Relying on the recipient to also CC the reminder service seems fragile and ugly, and having to proxy through another service also seems unwanted (you're now relying on that service to be available for you to receive email).
