Does anyone know a way to automatically create/link org-tasks from Gnus
messages?  My current workflow is to just start a new capture and type
in or paste some of the relevant info, but if org could link to the
message that would be ideal.

Simpy put a link to the gnus message in the clipboard and paste it
in. Its well documented.

http://orgmode.org/manual/Handling-links.html

Depnds on this workflow and from where you want to get the link etc.

Capture templates can auto insert links to.

I've the following recipe in my org-capture-template:

     ("m" "mailnote" entry (file+headline "~/org/notes.org" "Notes")
          "** From: %:from Subject: %:subject\n   %a" :kill-buffer t)

So when I do `C-c r m` it create a note with a link to the relevant gnus
message. Look at http://orgmode.org/manual/Template-expansion.html for
other %:something.

As others said, use org-complete.  Most of my TODOs link to a mail. 

Here's something to get you started (from my org-config.org).  Then just
call C-c c from a Gnus mail.  Add what needs to be added and C-c C-c.
It's in your agenda (assuming ~/documents/todo.org in in your Org agenda
list)

#+begin_src org
* Capture
  Capture is used to capture things... It is the new thing

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-default-notes-file (concat org-directory "~/documents/noter.org"))
(define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture)
#+end_src

It needs templates
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (setq org-capture-templates
        '(("t" "Todo" entry (file+headline "~/documents/todo.org" "Tasks")
           "* TODO %?\n  %i\n  %a")
          ("w" "Word" entry
           (file+headline "~/documents/words.org" "Sweet Words")
           "* %:subject %?
  %i%a")
;;         ("j" "Journal" entry (file+datetree "~/documents/unidocs/journal.org")
;;           "* %?\nEntered on %U\n  %i\n  %a")
         ))

#+end_src

I think you meant org-capture, as described by your example setup. :)
Org-capture works indeed fine for me.

Sure, that's what I meant :)

And here I was looking for an Org Mode feature (org-complete) that would have new to me :)

Thanks for this.  Very useful.  I didn't know about the %:from
etc. keywords.
