I kind of agree. This brings up another question, related to the recent discussion about making a 'ready to fly' emacs/org-mode package, suitable for the non-emacs-sapiens that are attracted by org-mode.
I can imagine those people would like to send their carefully crafted org buffers by email. Do you expect them to set up gnus/vm/wanderlust/... ? I guess not.
So, wouldn't it be good if org could send those nicely formatted emails using their mail clients? 'M-x org-send-email' and woosh, there it goes!
Org prepares the body, then tells the mail app to prepare an mail with it. On the mac with Mail.app that's fairly easy to do with Applescript, and I guess other mac clients provide similar access. On Windows or *nix I don't know, but I can only assume similar functionality exists.
Maybe we needs some hooks in some places to encode images and such, and a way to deal with the communication with the mail client, ...
Wooosh, it would be nice.
Cheers,
Peter.
