Hi Eric, I just tried pasting content from an org file into a message-mode buffer and calling org-mail-htmlize on the region, and sending the resulting message to gmail. It worked very nicely, with two drawbacks: 1. The content contained links to an image like [[file:file.png][]]. I had to manually copy the image to /tmp in order for it to be found on sending. 2. The TODO keywords and timestamps lacked their org-mode fontification. Is there a different procedure I should use to do what I'm trying to do, or are these tweaks that could be made to your code? I have not attempted to follow the technical aspects of this thread so I may well be misunderstanding stuff here. Thanks!
