When we created our sharing feature, we knew that some people were going to use it to be able to have their tasks online. We decided it was fine with us, although it was defeating some of ConquSync's purposes. Doing that, however,  meant that all of their tasks would be placed in the Waiting view. Because of that, we thought that the practice would make Conqu less useful, and not be the experience we wanted people to have while using Conqu. 

Although the practice itself is still fine with us, we need to enforce that a contact's email address is different from the task owner's. The reason is that as we roll out our new ConquSync service, sharing tasks with yourself becomes an issue. Since every current user can potentially subscribe to ConquSync, we need to remove the ability to share with self from everybody.

So if you have tasks that you are sharing with a contact that has the same email address as your own, you should go to settings and specify a different address as your Sharing information. If you don't do that, then the shared tasks will be marked as not shared. 

If you use the sharing feature to be able to access your tasks from anywhere, we highly recommend you to subscribe to ConquSync, which will be released very soon, along with our desktop application. Sign up to our newsletter to be notified!
