What would happen if there were no such headline? Would it be created?

Yes, it is a filename.
The file I've been using temporarily was
"~/Tools/Org/Email"
when that did not work in the expression above, I tried to see whether I
should just put the file name, but it did not help. Sorry for not
providing that information before.
b> So I would suggest this configuration:
I tried that.
When typing "C-c C-c" it asks for a filename to save into (instead of
saving into the default, as the menu claims) and when trying to specify
the existing file, I get
"File `/home/greve/Tools/Org/Email' exists; overwrite? (y or n)"
which I declined as I don't want to lose that file.
If I do "C-c C-c" and give it "~/.notes" by hand (which should not have
been necessary in the first place) I get the following result for
.notes, regardless of its previous state:

## Filing location: Select interactively, default, or last used:

## C-c C-c "~/.notes" -> "* "
## C-u C-u C-c C-c "???" -> "* ???"
## To switch templates, use `M-x org-remember'.

So it seems that remember/org is malfunctioning somehow.
All help appreciated.
