This sounds very interesting and useful and I will definitely try it out
because it sounds like adding many useful features I was missing in
message-mode (I got so used to the org type editing...),
But my reasoning to use org for composing some emails, is that I would
like to have the emails in the project related org file.
But it might be an option to use notmuch links as these are base on the
message id and put these into the org files.
Thanks a lot,
Rainer
