Re: Re: Org mode and emacs email

I too am a non-programmer-type who loves emacs/org-mode. I second this
approach. I don't think it will ever be possible -- nor desirable -- to
create a pure out-of-the-box setup as in window's programs -- but this
approach would work well for those of us able to tinker and learn a
little but not quick enough to build from scratch. A good initial
setup(s) and a good manual entry should suffice.
