You can simplify making links to your email messages by creating a
custom link abbreviation assuming there is some uniquely identifying
chunk of the URL to use as a key.

Here are examples using google search and maps:

;; in .emacs
(setq org-link-abbrev-alist
      '(
        ("google"   . "http://www.google.com/search?q=")
        ("gmap"     . "http://maps.google.com/maps?q=%s")
        ))

Example org markup:

[[google:org-mode][org-mode on google]]
