I'm wondering that too now!

thank you for the pointer to msmtp

I've made some progress on this but it's not quite perfect.  I have this
function:
(defun mime-send-mail ()
"org-mime-subtree and HTMLize"
(interactive)
(org-mark-subtree)
;; wish I could get the PARENT headline here!
;; then figure out how to set subject to that headline!
(let ((subject  (nth 4 (org-heading-components))))
  (org-mime-subtree)
  (insert "\nBest,\nMP.\n")
  (org-mime-htmlize) ;; had to redefine so it could be called
non-interactively
  (command-execute 'mml-attach-file)
  (message-goto-to))
)

I've been thinking about it, and I would love to just have a link to the
student paper within org itself, and have the attachment added
automatically after org-mime-htmlize runs.  I'm not sure exactly how to do
that but if I figure it out I will let the group know.  I vaguely recall
I've seen other people describe such systems so I would appreciate guidance
if it's available.

Thanks again!
