F. Greve" writes: > (setq org-directory "~/Tools/Org/") > (setq org-default-notes-file "~/.notes") You can also set `org-remember-default-headline'. In your case, maybe "Emails" is a good choice: (setq org-remember-default-headline "Emails") Then you have to make sure there is a headline containing "Emails" in your `org-default-notes-file' or in the file the template is pointing to. > (setq org-remember-templates > '((?e "* NEXT %?\n %i\n %a" "Email" "Emails"))) ^^^^^ I don't understand the first "Email" here. The third argument should be a filename, as specified in org-remember-templates ,----[ C-h v org-remember-templates ] | ... | The third element is optional and can specify a destination file for | remember items created with this template. The default file is given by | `org-default-notes-file'. | ... `---- So I would suggest this configuration: (setq org-directory "~/Tools/Org/") (setq org-default-notes-file "~/.notes") (setq org-remember-default-headline "Emails") (setq remember-annotation-functions '(org-remember-annotation)) (setq remember-handler-functions '(org-remember-handler)) (add-hook 'remember-mode-hook 'org-remember-apply-template) (setq org-remember-templates '((?e "* NEXT %?\n %i\n %a"))) > Is this a known problem? Is there something I should look out for? Hope this helps. -- Bastien
