I have my team sending email threads into projects as they complete these adhoc tasks. The issue is we have embedded links in signatures and when they select add email as comment it comes through as long threads of text instead of the shortened hyperlinks. This makes the comments long. I know they delete some of the text, but does Asana have an enhancement coming that would facilitate a cleaner task creation in this process?
Good question. That problem is the reason why I don’t like emailing comments or emailing tasks to Asana for that matter… Why don’t everybody work in Asana directly?
Adding emails from Outlook directly to taks is marvellous for tracking imporant information. However, the unformated text in the comments is tedious and too long. Especially, if you have several updates added.
Great would be if one could collapse and toggle long comments to show only the first few rows of text of each comment.
Another cool way would be what is suggested in this thread to tidy up the comments section.

I have all my team comment directly in Asana. The emails added in the comments section are 99% assosciated with external communication.
