Anderson" Cc: orgmode list unless those services have some kind of API, and you have the desire to implement it in emacs, you might be out of luck. I am trying to figure out a way to do collaborative work via email, where I am the project coordinator. The idea is to use my email.el code to send headlines to people I need information or action from, and then to have them reply to the email. Then, I would have some easy way to get information out of the reply back to the heading (e.g. TODO state change, info etc...). Probably I would embed some org-id link in the email, and "train" the users not to delete it. This is only a half-baked idea so far. It would integrate org-contacts, mu4e, and org-mode in my setup. depending in your role in the project, you might get something like that to work too. Tory S.
