in the google movie, the presenter did a REALLY cool trick where he  
linked an org file to an email in mail.app..

part of me would like to use gnus (does anyone on here use gnus for  
email?)..

but being able to link directly to a mail.app message would be VERY  
nice..

can someone give me some ointers on how they did this?

thanks!

It may be overkill, but general OS X linkage stuff (requires
Quicksilver, but could be easily adapted) here:

Ditto!

And with gnus linking email or newsgroup messages is very nice (when
using org-remember).  There's even an option that makes links pointing
to gnus newsgroup articles point to this article at groups.google.com,
where they won't expire.

Bye,

Under MacOS X, I load org-mac-message.el.  Then I have a remember
template which looks like this:

  ("Emailtask" 101 "* TODO %?\n  %(org-mac-message-get-link)" "~/org/ 
gtd.org" "Tasks" nil)


the function `org-mac-message-get-link' will get the link to the  
currently active email in Mail.app and the remember template will  
insert it.

Ditto!  I wrote a package that uses mswatch to get near realtime
synchronization between the server and my local copy.
