Dye" Cc: emacs orgmode-mailinglist Hi Thomas, thanks for your reply! Sure I know Bernt Hansen's web page and I'm already using his configuration for my system. (I'm still learning Emacs and org-mode, so it was easier to start with an existing setup). I already know and use the capture and refile feature, my problem is that I have the feeling to do more administration of tasks than really doing them if I track such projects like the one described with org-mode and create a sub-task for each step. Especially as I'd have to re-type each time again the name of the project if I want it to appear in my agenda explicitly and not only: WAITING John: Feedback (and I would not know which text it is about). > Von: "Thomas S.
