Hi Ivan,

That's something that Gnorb[1] can do. Make a capture template that
you want to use for outgoing mail TODOs, and identify it:

(setq gnorb-gnus-new-todo-capture-key "O")

Then, while you're composing the email, call
`gnorb-gnus-outgoing-do-todo' in the message buffer, which I have bound
to "C-c t".

You can also call it *after* sending the message, if you forgot, and it
will initiate the same process from the last sent message.

It works best when you're using Gcc, as that means Org is able to make a
real link to the sent message. Gnorb will try to fake it, if you're not.

If you set (setq gnorb-gnus-hint-relevant-article t), Gnorb will even
notify you when you get a reply to your sent message.

It's early days for Gnorb, but this part of it works well for me. I'd
love a little more road-testing, if you're interested!

I'm going to stick it in ELPA in a month or so, but for now:

Hope it helps!
