If I understand correctly, one must enable =org-use-property-inheritance= for
the above to be in effect.
Though, this is discouraged in the doc:
,----
| org-use-property-inheritance is a variable defined in `org.el'.
| Its value is nil
|
| Documentation:
| Non-nil means properties apply also for sublevels.
|
| This setting is chiefly used during property searches. Turning it on can
| cause significant overhead when doing a search, which is why it is not
| on by default.
`----
Couldn't we either:
- consider the MAIL_* properties as the *_ALL ones that well have inheritance
enabled by default?
,----
| However, note that some special properties use inheritance under special
| circumstances (not in searches). Examples are CATEGORY, ARCHIVE, COLUMNS,
| and the properties ending in "_ALL" when they are used as descriptor
| for valid values of a property.
`----
- have a setting allowing for the inheritance of just these special
properties, as an extra, in order not to penalize too much the searches?
Best regards,
Seb
