Dear org-mode maintainers,

I have been trying to include links to rmail folders in my .org file,
and found that following those would lead to "Message not found" unless
(1) the link was to the last message in the folder; and (2) I ensured
that Message-ID was not hidden (the latter also was necessary to be able
to copy links with C-cl).  

Trying to understand org-rmail-follow-link in org-rmail.el, the
behaviour is consistent with the buffer not being widen'd, but I am not
sure why that didn't happen.  I did find that the rewrite below
corrected the bug -- difference with original follows; it is partially a
reversion to an older version I found at
http://braeburn.aquamacs.org/code/master/lisp/org/org-rmail.el

Unfortunately, I understand what I'm doing far too poorly to be sure
this is the correct solution...

Thanks, all best regards,

Marten van Kerkwijk



(defun org-rmail-follow-link (folder article)
  "Follow an Rmail link to FOLDER and ARTICLE."
  (require 'rmail)
  (setq article (org-add-angle-brackets article))
  (let (message-number buff)
    (save-excursion
      (save-window-excursion
	(rmail (if (string= folder "RMAIL") rmail-file-name folder))
	(setq buff (current-buffer)
	      message-number
	      (with-current-buffer rmail-view-buffer
		(save-restriction
		  (widen)
		  (goto-char (point-max))
		  (if (re-search-backward
		       (concat "^Message-ID:\\s-+" (regexp-quote
						    (or article "")))
		       nil t)
		      ;; This is an rmail "debugging" function. :(
		      (with-current-buffer buff
			(rmail-what-message))))))))
    (if message-number
	(progn
	  (rmail (if (string= folder "RMAIL") rmail-file-name folder))
	  (rmail-show-message message-number)
	  message-number)
      (error "Message not found"))))

The difference with the original:
