I'm not sure how many moderators there are, but I am one of them, and I 
have been having trouble with getting my personal email on my desktop at 
work. I'm also insanely busy, so I can't SSH home to check my mail very 
frequently.

I have tried once again to fix the underlying technical issues, and I'm 
hoping things will be better.

If you got to the main menu on Progect, and select "Set/Reset Attributes", 
you should be able to set the todo link for everything you can see on the 
screen. To avoid doing the ENTIRE project, use sub to only see the part of 
the tree you want to modify.

Double check the behaviour though, I don't use the todo link 
functionality.
