It was actually org-feed (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-feed.html ). Here is an example usagethat downloads recent org-mode maillist entries and formats them in a list of org-headings. The formatter function does some character replacements, and makes the headings TODO items. I also defined a little function to speed up deleting headlines I don't want to keep. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (defun textify (s) "strip control and escaped html ^M < > etc" (let ((output s)) ; (setq output (replace-regexp-in-string " \\| ;" " " s)) (setq output (replace-regexp-in-string "<" "<" output)) (setq output (replace-regexp-in-string ">" ">" output)) (setq output (replace-regexp-in-string """ "\"" output)) (setq output (replace-regexp-in-string "
